will largely succeed to his responsi

His strongest

of the senate were those he opposed
most vigorously during the last ses
sion, showing that they recognize his
judgment and ability and admit hla
fairness. The people of the fifteenth
district are proud of Senator Glasgow
and pleased with the honor whicn has
come to him, and the Senator, on tha
other band, appreciates the honor no
less for himself than for his constitu
ents. He has plainly nnd repeatedly
said that In au-tfis oflMal life he will
deavor to execute their will, and mer
it their hearty approbation. There is

Tbe roll call of members

Sir Walter Scott. Misses Emma and
Mary Lundstrum sang a duet Id the

entitled, “An Evening’s Study,” was
given by Miss Mildred Coe, depicting
two school girls preparing their les
sons together. It was, “true to life”
well written and well delivered. Miss
Pearl Barnes followed with an oration
on the Hawalan Islands which wa*
very good. It treated of their geo
graphy and scenery and the customs
and i eligions of the people and their
feeling on the Annexation question.
Miss Kate Bowen gave an instrumen
tal solo entitled, “Armor” after which
came the debate, “Resolved, that it
would be a benefit to tbe United State*
to annex Mexico and Canada.” Those
representing tha
affirmative
were
Ernest Appleman and Gail Baker, the
negative Gainell Franck and Walter
Scheldt.
The affirmative speakers
dealt with decrease in tariffs, bound
aries and the commercial value of the
territory while the negative batted the
arguments on the undesirabilty of
assuming tbe Canadian debt and their
ignorance of our manufacturing in

Shifty and Walters finally threw up
their hands in deepair.
"Great Scotti" said Mickey; "I
won't play another card to-night.” He
gated at tha stack of chips in front of
thci stranger.
"Nor I," echoed Shifty. "I'm busted."
He nodded admiringly toward tha
stranger. "How do you do it?” he
exclaimed.
The stranger modestly said he didn’t
know how he did IL This made Messrs.
Smith and Waken smile. For they
knew, all right—they knew that they
bal been doing it for him. Then they
sighed.
"One more game?” insisted the
stranger. They shook their heads
"Some other time," they said.
The stranger rose, after having ar
ranged his chips in little piles.
“Then,” remarked the stranger, "as
it is getting late, I'll have to cash In
and get out That’s All."
"Charley," called Shifty to "the
house," “the gentleman wants to cash
in.” There waa no answar. “Gone to
sleep, I guess," said Smith. He strode
to the little alcove, when* “’he house"
sat behind a little curtain, and

close companion. Shifty Smith—two
young men with fresh complexions,
but very hard mouths—were poker
sharps par excellence. For they had a
little game that*was all their own.
"It’s the latest thing in poker."
Mickey would remark, as he winked
his other eye.
It was. And it was novel. For,
whereas the old-timers had been wont
to let their victims stack up the chips
at the start, they always, toward the
end of the game, did the stacking up
themselves; whereas this had been the
rule, Messrs. Smith and Walters had
apparently reversed tL They usually
started on an even basis, allowing
their victim to win a game and lose a
game, and when the victim was quite
sure that they were on the level,
they let him have everything in
sight. Any man. who within the last
two years has been up against Mickey
Walters or Shifty Smith, will recall
that he finished in grand style, with
every chip piled up before him. How
could this be? Ah. that Is. where the
enterprise and originality came into
»lay.
It was an Invariable rule with
Messrs. Smith and Walters and a (hird
individual, who aided them in the en
terprises now and then, to keep on
hand at least the sum of >500. This
is quite essential. for he who goes out
after elephants must use something
more than fish worms aa his bait. But
at times they were sadly pinched to
keep thia tidy sum in tow.
It was on a pleasant, but frigid win
ter evening, that they found them
selves—but for this reserve fund of
hart’s thousand—almost without funds
But Smith and Walters started out
and soon came back. They came back
not alone. They had with them a
youngster wbo they were sure had in
his clothes the sum of >2.000. They
were sure of this, because they had
seen the money. It was two luaclous

thing in cards stepped quietly down
stairs and disappeared.
Back in tne little cafe the waiter
stepped into the room. "Bay!” he said
to the trio, "haven’t you got some
money wot is good. This here is on
the bum.” He tossed the >1,000 .bill
upon the table.
The young victim of the evening may
have been the latest thing in cards, but
the thousand dollar bills were the la

Bad Teeth Cause Cancer.
London.—Walter Whitehead, the well
known Manchester surgeon, believes it
possible that cancer may be due to bad
teeth. Addressing the students of the
Victoria Dental hospital the other day
he said, that to drain, trap, and ventilate
a bouse for a man with bad teeth waa
waste of money, for he polluted the
purest air as be breathed it, and con

He was a raw recruit, who went into

by Wilhelm Krebs. Many ot them rep
resent submarine volcanic eruptions,
and a very striking fact to their great
concentration in tbe narrowest part of
the Atlantic ocean, between Africa and
South America. It is suggested that
this greater apparent activity may be
due largely to lack of observations In
the much leas traveled Pacific. Other
centers are the West Indies, the west

that plant growth is more or less of a

of fertilizers, and that the ultimate

Mouse over me and went to sleep, shivering.
A familiar sound woke me—that of
the reveille. The sun was shining, the
sky clear, the wind had gone down.
A crow sat calling in the tree above my
hpad. I lay in a strip of timber, thin
ind narrow, on the lake shore. Through
the bushes I could see tbe masts of the
brig slanting out of water some rods
away. Beyond the timber was a field
of corn, climbing a side-bill that sloped
off to a level, grassy plain. Beyond the
hill-top, reveille was still sounding. A
military camp was near me. and although I made no move, my mind was
up snd busy as a cat at a mouse-hole,
looking down at my uniform, not, in
deed. the most healthful sert of dress
for that country. AIL at once I caught
sight of a scarecrow in the corn. I
laughed at tbe odd grofesquery of tbe
thing—an old frock coat and trousers
of olive-green, faded and torn and fat
with straw. A stake driven through its
collar into tbe earth, and crowned with
an ancient, tall bat of beaver, gave it a
backbone. An idea came .to me. I

We ate hurriedly and when we had

and gave him an odd look. She went
out of doors while we were dressing.
Suddenly she came back to the door.
"Go Into the cellar," ghe whispered.
"They are coming!”

with a rank odor of rotting potatoes.
We groped our way to a corner and
stood listening We heard the clink
of spurs on the atone step.
"Ah, my good woman," said a man
with a marked English accent, "have
you seen any Yankees? Woods are
full of them around here. No? Well,
by Jove, you’re a good-looking woman.
Will you give me a kiss?"
He crossed the floor above us, and
she was backing away.
“Come, come, don’t be so shy, my
pretty woman.” said he. and then we
could hear her struggling up and down
the floor. I was climbing the ladder.

A year ago a young mao—hia name
and addresaj’don’t Jmatter—made a
sensible New Yuar resolution. He had
keen married a few years; he received
«small salary, and had been mort
gaging his future—drifting into (debt.
The numi he owed were not large, jbut
they were larger than he could* pay,
and his wants were steadily increasing.
.And hia debts, likeja burden*about bis
□seek. steadily dulled bis courage)*,and
aapped hia energies.
He determined
to get rid of this deadening weight at
•ay sacrifice. He felt that if •he*)were
to progress he must have bis full man
hood. full liberty, full respect of
others and of himself.
He realized
anal be never could command* pros
perity until he had proved himself
master of adversity. So he and his
•willing wife set about for a way to
pay these debts.
Fortunately, his
work was such that he could! work
overtime and get extra pay for it. He
had perfect health and/gdiscovered
that this was valuable capital. Inter«ZFTc" his work increased, energies
that had been dormant were revived,
ambition that had been suffered to be
come sluggish found, fillip.
Whole
some work to the full limit of his pow
ers, though hard at first, lightened
with increased hope and eased with
habit and was proving in bis case, as
it does in all others, the best tonic
Ahere is. As his pleasure in bis work
ijgrew, a lot ot little expenses for
amusements dropped off almost un
noticed. As his purposes grew in
seriousness his wants became more
simple. He had found Ideals, the at
tainment of which money can not buy
and called for no expenditures. His
extra work was making money for
him at both ends. And it was doing
more. it wa» making manhood and
efficiency, right hope and settled pur
pose, eelf-confidence and self-respect.
He had learned that labor, .put upon
Adam and Eve as punishment, is in
reality the best blessing mankind has
—the only means of developing dead
clay into virile manhood. He bad
learned that to put one’s shoulder to
tbe wheel and push perfunctorily, but
with all one’s strength, until every
xn uncle strains and every nerve tingles,
and to feel the wheel move under his
force, gives tbe best exhilaration to
tbe body, the mind and tbe spirit that
is ever felt in this life. Yes: he bad
learned, too, what mockery there is
in that word ‘'duty,” as commonly
exsed. He had been “doing his full
slaty” before; now he was doing tbe
very best that be could—and it was
wonderfully different. He had been
ffulilting his obligation to his employ
er, which meant that his work was far
above the average—and his employer
was qeiek to see it and appreciate It.
A lltde bank account in bis name

and a waster of his own destinies.—

Strawberries on Trees.
M. Ballet, a French specialist, was
enabled to grow strawberries on plants
of a decidedly tree like nature. The
method was simplicity itself. Tbe run
ner® were trained vertically and lied to
a stake in the same way that a pot to
mato plant is. and then tbe lateral
buds were pinched out. Tbe result was
a strawberry tree on a small scale. The
system, as regards the strawberry
plant, has been utilised in the produc
tion of tree heliotropes, or "cherry
pie," as ’.he fragrant flower* are usual
ly called on account of the strong cher
ry-like perfums they give out. Ths
finest specimens of these are to be seen

He glanced ruefully at the canoe fast

the shore to see if it offered any hope.

hysterically. "Do you suppose that I

Never."
For want of a better occupation he
searched along the shore for clams, find
ing a few. but deciding after one taste
that it would be better to look for berriee. Il was too late for berries, ap
parently. and there was another pause
and reflection. He had just derided that
it was as well that Nan Carroll would not
marry him, when that changeable young
woman plumped herself down upon tbe
moss beside him.
"Why don’t you talk?" she asked,
cheerfully.
"It’s awfully lonesome

Tucker gasped, but for a moment he
did not dare speak. When he found

not of himself nor of their predicament,
and presently they were chatting as mer
rily as (hough there had been none of the

They were still talking when stiddesly
they heard footsteps behind them and
they sprang to thslr feet.
Just behind them was a tall clerical
man ta blue overalls and checkered cal
ico jumper.
"I hope I don’t intrude,” he said, qulsxically.
"Are you Man Friday?” demanded
Nan. “You see, we are Mr. and Mrs.

Nan gasped. "Why didn’t you think

"You told me It was deserted,” be said,
defensively, "and I supposed you knew.
I only came last night." he added, in ex

"We could fool that gossiping crowd,

More than ever Dave marveled at tbe

SELF GOVERNMENT IMPOSSIBLE
Letter
Catbalogan, Samar, P. I.,Dec. 3,1904
To the Readers of The News:
In the four months which I have
spent in tbe Philippine Islands I think
I have learned more about them than
1 expected to learn in tbgt length of
time. Nearly all the Americans whom
you meet have been here some time
and have filled positions in different
parts of the Islands, so that in talking
with them one gets a pretty good idea
of the conditions prevailing in the
entire archipelago. One also meet a a
few ex-soldiers, who like to talk of
tbeir experiences here during tbe
inzurrection, or “in tbe days of tbe
Empire," as they say. As Catbalogan
was General Smith’s headquarters
during bis notable campaign in Samar
one hoars many tales of events which
happened here during that time, and
the ueberal opinion among American
realuqpte seem* to be that instead of
being court-martialed he should have
been given a medal of honor for his
work in this island. As those timee
are past it is not necessary to explain
why such an opinion should prevail.
authA'present time.
I wm rather surprised .to find that
tbe people, instead ef being pure
Malayan stock, as I had supposed,
are largely mixed with CHinesc. This
is true throughout the islands, with
only a few exceptions. Tbe Moros
in the southern provinces are Moham
medans and consequently do not mix
with other people, and in the hills In
the interior of Luxon and Mindanao
are wild tribes of which little is defin
itely known. Practically all of the
better class of Filipinos are either
part Spanish or part Chinese, and in
many wavs this is fortunate, for the
full-blood Malayan is almost invari
ably a blockhead, while those of
mixed blood are intelligent and learn
readily.
In some places, tbe people are al
most pure Chinese little modified by
Malayan blood. This is tbe way with
tbe Pangaainans of Luzon, at least
they have enough Chinese about them
so that they have Chinese names in
stead of Spanish, as the ordinary
Filipino does.
The Filipino has the distinguishing
traits ot all Oriental characters, and
ao, like other Orientals, has little re
gard for truth, hoqeety, chastity, and
cleanliness. In all Oriental towns
tbe houses are crowded closely to
gether with no thought of sanitation,
and with no provision for the care of
refuse, except in places constructed by
foreigners. Tbe Spaniards paid little
attention to such matters and it is
only since American occupation that
modern ideas of sanitation have begun
to prevail.
Manila is much different
in this respect than formerly and as a
consequence the death rate is very
much lower, cholera, etc-, having
been reduced to a minimum.
Tbe Filipino' may perhaps admire
truth and honesty, if displayed by an
American for instance, but has little
use for them himself. The youngsters
in school will look you in the face and
considerably from place to place. In
Samar ana Leyte, practically the
only product Is hemp. Tbe abaca
from wnich hemp iv produced grows
beet on a hillside and as these islands
are both very hilly they furnish fine
opportunities for tbe production of
part_____
of the
this article. Only a small par
__
land is under cultivation. tne greater
part being covered with dense vegeta
tion. There are no large hemp farms,
all of it being produced by small
growers. With present methods a
large crop oould not be handled, as it
must be stripped by hand and that
takes considerable time.
Two or
three 1 hemp-stripping machines have
been invented, all said to be more or
leas successful, and if they do prove
so. this industry will undoubtedly be
come very widely extended. There is
a good chance for capital to be safely
invested In this industry as the crop
is sure, there being no pest to destroy
tbe abaca.
In Luzon rice, coffee, tobacco and
pineapples are grown quite extensive
ly, with possibilities of a much great
er production of all of them.
In some places cocoanuts are raised
extensively and the production of
copra and oocoanut oil is an impor
tant industry.
So far m is known there is not
much mineral wealth In the islands,
although coal is successfully mined at
several places. The islands are very
rich agriculturally, however, and as a
large part of tbe land Is still unculti
vated there is a fine opportunity for
growth.
Tbe climate Is almost ideal, provid
ing one does not care for cold weath
er. At present we are in the middle
very much like Michigan in Jane.
During the last twenty-four hours the
maximum temperature was eighty
seven degrees and tbe minimum fifty
seven degrees, so you will see it some
times gets quite cool. From about
the first of September until the last of
February It rains qu'te often, an^i be
tween those months the rains are less
frequent and the temperature higher.
There is some very pretty country
in the Philippines and well worth
seeing. About three miles from Cat
balogan is a series of five or six
waterfalls, which everyone who visits
them declares are the prettiest bit
of natural scenery they ever saw.
provinces would soon make an
attempt to regain the power they had
when tbe Spaniards came. There is
ao old stone fort, still In good pre
servation, standing in Catbalogan,
which was built as a protection
against Moro incursions. If left to
themselves the islands would prob
ably soon get into just sueb a condi
tion as several South American countries are today. Tbe people

each other and each tribe would
struggle for the mastery.
In tbe
island of Luzon alone several differ
ent languages arc spoken and the
people of Samar have difficulty In
understanding people from Cebu and
Pansy although of tbe same division.
At times there is even a feeling of
bitterness between towns not twenty
fire miles apart. Under such condi
tions it is easy to see how they could
not get along together unices united
under some government which admin
isters tbe same law throughout the
islands and prevents them making

NASHVILLE, MICHIGAN, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 1903.
VOLUME XXXII
W. H. KLAINHANS
H. R. DIOKINeON
O- A. HOUGH
This progressive financial institu
tion ha* been closely Interwoven with
the history of Nashville for the past
sixteen years, and in that time has
come to be recognized as one of the
soundest banking establishments tn
the state.
The first meeting looking toward its
organization was held at the Wolcott
House in this village December 15,
1888, and at that time the first board
of directors was elected, comprised of
C. D. Beebe and Clement Smith of
Hastings, L. E. Knappen of Grand
Rapids, G. A. Truman, Frank C.
Boise, William H. Klelnhans and C.
W. Smith of this place. The bank
was opened for business on January
15, 1889, with C. D. Beebe as presi-
A savings department was opened
on January 8, 1901, and sprang into
immediate popularity, the savings
deposits at the present lime aggregat
ing nearly 160,000, from 628 accounts.
The bank carries at present about 130
hook or commercial account*, about
1200 certificate accounts, and the num
ber of these is continually increasing.
They pay liberal rates of interest on
savings accounts and there is no oc
casion for anybody in Nashville or
vicinity to go away from home to do
their banking, as the facilities here
are of the very best.
We present In this issue an illus
tration of the . interior of the bank,
which ..has recently been completely
changed. A splendid vault has been
put in, the largest in this part of the
state, a new Mosier screw door safe
has been added, and a large number
of Mosier safety deposit boxes put in
for the convenience of patrons of the
bank. The arrangement of the office*
is excellent, making the handling of
the work much easier than formerly
and giving it the appearance of a fine
modern banking house, which it is.
One of the records which the establish
ment has made is that without excep
tion all of it* clerk* in the past have
been called to better positions of re
sponsibility and trust.
Much of the present prosperity of
Nashyille as a wide-awake, progres
sive village is doe to this institution.
Il ba* ever been a factor in every for
ward movement, and it ha* helped
many of our citizens and business
men to tide over perilous moment* in
their career and put them on their feet.

FENCING
The fence has now become one of the chief
items of farm expense. Wire is the only material
now used. Quality and size of wire and style of
knot determines the value of the fence. Ex
perience has taught that fences made from soft
wire soon stretch and get out of shape,

Beaches Its Height
(SoecUl Correspondence.]
LmeIng.Mlch. Jan. —Extreme sleep
’ tsess seems to be the most noticeable fea
ture of the legislative session In this
city. The Importance of the measures
which have been passed may be shown by
the fact that three of them are for the
purpose of changing somebody's name.
There has been much agitation over pro
posed measures, but as yet not a single
bill of any importance has been dis
cussed in the committees and the short
sessions of both houses have been mads
noticeable by the little work done. In
fact, it is said that no session in the last
decade has seen such a tame beginning
as is tbe case with the 1905 meeting. Lt
■was expected that whan the 50-day limit
for the Introduction of bills was eradi
cated. the legislators would buckle down
to work with great vim. and probably
wind up tbe session earlier than is usual
ly the case, but the opposite result has
been produced, and some of the older
members of the body declare that the ses
sion is likely to extend far into the
spring.
It is said that the younger
members of the body are wait
ing to see the action of their seniors, and,
realizing that measures may be intro
duced up to the last minute of the ses
sion. are lacking in enterprise. Usually
the vacation which the leglslaturer Is
•taking is not p. rmitted until about thn
middle of February, but this year it is
coming about two weeks earlier. Tbe
legislature returns from the recess Feb
ruary' 4. but after that there will be caucuse* and the republican state conven
tion on F«&ruary 15, and. according to
President Pro Tem. Glasgow, of the sen
ate, the bosses will not get down to real
work until about the 20th of February.

For Thin
Babies
.Fat is of great account
to a baby; that is why
babies are fat. If your
baby is scrawny, Scott’s
Emulsion is what he
wants. The healthy baby
stores as fat what it does
not need immediately for
bone and muscle. Fat
babies are happy ; they do
not cry; they are rich;
their fat is laid up for
time of need. They are
happy because they are
comfortable. The fat sur
rounds their little nerves
and cushions them. When
they are scrawny those
nerves are hurt at every
ungentle touch. They
delight in Scott's Emul
sion. It is as sweet as
wholesome to them.

become a member of the Independent

Mrs. Perkins led her husband to tbe

can buy Is a dangerous thing in more
ways than one.) He receives the dem
in at ion and is elected by the voters of
tbe slate, who really know but Jvery
little of him or his fitness, and in spite
of tbe votes of the people of bis own
community, who know blm personally
and refuse to vote for blm. It is a
possibility fraught with grave danger.
And if it is possible with a candidate
for governor, how much more easily
possible with the other places on the
state ticket, to which but slight atten
tion is paid by the people at large,
even though some of them are nearly
if not quite as important an that of the
chief executive. By the way, how
many of you who are reading this ar
ticle can name tbe present state officers
from governor down? Possibly if you
are a practical politician you will be
able to name them. Otherwise tbe
chances are ten to one against your
doing ft correctly. The people wbo
do the voting really know but very
little about the men for whom they
vole, except their own home candi
dates. It is a lamentable fact, but it
is nevertheless true. They are com
pelled lo rely very largely upon their
practical political friends who do
know them.
We believe the majority of the peo
ple are honest. When this is not true
the.country will go to the bad. Act
ing upon the assumption that a ma
jority are honest, we can hold honest
primaries, and nominate honest men
for public office, as easily as we now
conduct an honest election. It ap
pears to us that tbe simplest and most
practical solution of tbe problem is to
conduct the primaries precisely the
same as tbe elections are now conduct
ed. When a township caucus is to be
held, let every voter go into the booth
and prepare bis list of delegates to
the county convention.
When the
county convention is held, let every
delegate go into the booth andoaathis
vote for his list of delegates to the
state convention. Conduct the state
convention upon the same lines. This
method will preserve the absolute in
tegrity of the primaries, and will re
tain all the valuable features of tbe
conventions. Organizations can be
perfected and kept in good working
order as at present, platforms can be
adopted, resolutions passed, enthusi
asm retained, and at the same time no
candidate can buy a vote, either of
tbe citizen who casts his ballot at the
primary, or ot the delegate who repre
sents him at tbe county and state con
ventions, for the simple reason that
he can not know that he will receive
what he pays for. Under such a sys
tem, if a dishonest delegate is sent to
a county convention, it is the fault of
tbe voters who ought to and will know
him personally, and the chances are
that the delegates to tbe county and
state conventions will be men who are
recognized for their Integrity, moral
worth and intelligence, men upon
whom their constituents can rely, and
men who will place In nomination
only candidates of tbe highest char
acter and moral worth.
Think this matter over. There ms v
be flaws»in*the method but we believe it
is worth trying. It renders the pri
mary as absolutely honest as tbe
elections now are, and it retains tbe
delegate system upon which our gov
ernment itself Is founded. It gives do
dishonest newspaper a “graft," and it
will not bow to tbe dictation of any
corrupt “machine." Tbe people them
selves will construct tee “machine,"
and if it is dishonest it is because the
people themselves are dishonest,
which we do not believe. It will put
the nomination of all candidates
squarely and strictly into tee hands
of the people themselves, and will
make officials answerable for tee re
sults of tbeir actions to the people
who put them into the high places,
and not to any clever political man
ipulator or so-called “boss."
The same method Is as applicable
to the nomination of municipal .county
and legislatl ve officers as il la to state
officers, and is so simple teat it will
be readily understood by tbe voters
at large.
_
Think it over. Take your time.
There is no burry. Do your own
thinking; don’t allow a state paper or
any one else to do it for you. Use
your own intelligence and do your
Otrn voting. The safety of the coun
try la in the latelligeooe and tbe

Will Nashville grow? This question
is In the mind of every citizen who
takes pride in his own town and who
has the accustomed push and energy
of tbe American people in his make
up.
Nashville could grow if tbe
proper push and energy was put forth
to make It grow. There are many
ways to go about tbe work of build
ing up a town but they all center
around the one Idea that it has got to
be the duty of some man or body; of
men to do the pushing. Other towns
around us sire growing and there is
no reason why our own town could not
share in some of this prosperity. Why
would it not be a good plan for tbe
business men and others interested to
form an improvement association,
elect officers, formulate plana for an
aggressive campaign for more fac
tories and institutions for the employ
ment of labor. ' Just at the present
time, when large manufacturing plants
of the cities are looking for locations
in smaller places where they will be
free from labor troubles and high
taxes, why would it not be a good
Idea to get into communication with
them and offer them tbe right kind of
inducements to locate here.
Many
small towns around the state are se
curing institutions of benefit to their
towns, with some energy, and again
we say it conld he done here if only
the proper start could betaken. Every
two weeks the Lentz Table company
distributes over a thousand dollars
to its employee, which enters into
tbe channels fof trade in the village,
and we will venture the assertion that
there Is but very little of this money
but what finds its way to the local
merchants. This should be proof
alone that a few more such fac
lories would be a benefit. Let some
one make a suggestion as to tbe way
to better the commercial intercuts of
our town.
An apparently effective blow has
been struck at the beef trust through
the decision of the United States su
preme court handed dow n Monday.
Tbe opinion covers a long list of
changes, which taken as a whole, es
tablish the fact that the combination
is a conspiracy in restraint of trade.
The case mkde out against tbe packers
includes the securing of discrimin
ative (reight rates, the pooling of
profits, tbe maintenance of fixed sell
ing prices which were arbitrarily
raised and lowered and enforced under
severe penalties. By stifling compe
tition the members of tbe trust man
ipulates the price of livestock to tbeir
owd profit, thus bolding the producer,
the dealer and tbe consumer absolute
ly within their power. The decision
bite these practices a hard blow. It
will be difficult to correct the abuses
declared to be illegal, because of tbe
great resources and secret operations
of tbe interests involved, but a decis
ive step has been taken and it promis
es to have a powerful influence in
curbing trust dominance.
*
A bill now before tbe legislature, if
passed, will throw out all slot ma
chines, from tbe innocent little gum
machines to the more pronounced
gambling slot machines. We believe
this will pass and it ought to. This
Is a form of gambling which appeals
to youth and gives them their first
lessons in wrong-doing. It is a “skin
game" pure and simple and no good
can come ot the practice.
Johann Hoch, tbe husband of thirtyfive wives, made a big mistake wast
ing time in tbe east. He should have
gone to Utah, where be would have un
doubtedly been elected a Mormon
bishop or senator without opposition.
Quite a number of people are re
joicing over tbe decision of the su
preme court by which the beef trust
gets a good choking; but many others
prefer to wait until toe price comes
down before they celebrate.
No need of going weal to come into

CENTRALIZED BREEDING.
Tells Hoi
Greatest
While horses are being bred In
every agricultural district there is lit
tle concerted method or organized
effort in the work. A buyer having
an order for a carload of draft horses
of a given breed, type and weight has
lo seek out and buy individual ani
mals here and there at great expense,
says Dr. A. S. Alexander. He cannot
go to a ’particular center and in one
day till his order with horses of the
kind and quality be want*. Each cen
ter is producing many different kinds
of horses, but has ao specific product
for sale. Each Individual breeder has
to seek a buyer for his stock and can
supply but a limited number of ani
mals. While these conditions -exist
buying is made an expensive business
and the buyer's expenses are neces
sarily deducted from the price of the
animals he purchases. Specialization
tn production will mean the creation
of breeding centers each of which will
be devoted to the raising ot horses of
a particular type, blood and quality.
Each farmer In such a center will
breed practically the same product,
will work for the success ot that
product and benefit equally with the
others from the visits of the buyer
attracted there by the certainty ot
finding a full complement of the horses
he wants. If a man wishes to import
a Percheron horse he goes forthwith
to the district of LaPerche in France,
and at once finds what he wants, for
LaPerche is headquarters for tbw
breed and noted on that account the
world over. For Clydesdales he goes
to certain well-known counties In
Scotland; for Shires to equally distinct
and advertised centers In England,
and in the same country to similar
centers for Suffolk, hackney, thor
oughbred. -Cleveland bay or York
, shire coach horses. So, too. he can
easily ascertain the particular place
abroad where he can find Belgian
draft, French coach, German coach or
Orloff horses. A particular county of
tbe state should make one certain
dess of horse* its specialty. Each
county would then have a special
product to sell; its bleeders would act
together to advance the quality and
fame of this product, and in time build
up a steady trade with buyers willing
HARNESS HOOK COSTLESS.
. Mrs. Tinney confesses she was in
timidated into sleeping on a couch in
Jenks' room for two weeks; that she
and her husband submitted to these
conditions under fear for their lives.
When asked why sbe did not appeal
for the protection of the law, the ex
plained that, as she understood the
situation, Jenks could have been con
victed of assault only, and that after
serving a short sentence be would be
free aud unrestrained and could then
wreak vengeance on her and her hus
band.
Sbe states he did threaten, saying if
he waa ever arrested on account of his
relations with her, be would shoot both
ber and her husband on sight
And
he said be had tbe gun to do it with.
On the night of Pruden's death, ac
cording to Mrs. Tinney's partial ac
count, tbe demand that she occupy the
room with Jenks was resisted by her
and her husband.
Alger Pruden, the dead boy, learn
ing of the shameful proposal, Indig
nantly denounced Jenks’ conduct.
Quiet was restored, however. Later
Jenks and Pruden retired, each to his
room. Then Jenks again insisted on
Mrs. Tinney occupying his room; he
wanted her to sleep on tbe couch and
Tinney to sleep in the bed with him.
Alger again interfered, trying to
reason with Jenks. The maudlin man
seemed to yield to Pruden, but when
quiet had been restored for some time
tbe shot was heard In Alger's room.
Mrs. Tinney rushed to tbe room and
found Jenks within. Alger was lying
pn tbe floor.
Jenks, according to tbe account,
while he did not acknowledge to Mr.
and Mrs. Tinney that he killed Alger
—for beexcla’med, “Alger has killed
himself”—yet threatened that if they
said anything that would cause
blm trouble on account of the death of
Alger be would kill them both if he
ever found the opportunity.
As a matter of fact they at first sup
posed Alger had committed suicide.
Mrs. Tinney declares that if Alger was
struck over the bead she had no Idea
what the weapon waa—that it must
have been something Jenks carried In
bis pocket.
.
Tinney corroborates what his wife
says. He takes bis arrest with the in
difference of a naturally dull mind, be
clouded more or less from tbe effects
of habitual drinking.
It is the belief of many that the crime
of Tinny and bis wife Is the offence,
but not more, of endeavoring to shield
a crime: to that end they gave out that
Alger Pruden bad committed suicide.
Whether they were tbe abbetors to the
firing the shot through tbe victim's
head to aid in having it appear that
Pruden was a suicide, does not yet
clearly appear, but it is not believed
they are iu any way responsible for
that act.
Tbe theory of murder for robbery, if
it was held by any, is exploded by the
fact that Pruden’* money, 428.50, was
found by an officer in the boy's suit

NASHVILLE, MICH., FEB. 18, 1906.
HELP PUSH.
As will be seen by the call published
the first page of The News this
week, a determined effort is to be
made by the citizens of Nashville 'and
vicinity to do somethin? to promote
the growth ot the village. The effort
is a timely oue, and should have the
hearty and enthusiastic support of
every good citizen.
Nashville is just now at a critical
stage in her existence. We have st
tained a population of 1230, and there
is do apparent reason why it should
grow any more, except as the farmers
of the vicinity retire from active life
on the farm and move into the village
to enjoy the rest which they have
earned and to educate their children.
But Nashville wants to grow faster
than that. We woke up a little sever
al years ago and secured the stave
and heading mill, which has been a
good thing for the village, has given
employment to quite a number of men,
and has paid out large sums of money
to the farmers around the town for
logs and bolts. But we should not be
content Io sit quietly by and let the
town lapse into a state of quiescence.
Let us get together and see Lt we can
not do something more for the up
building of the town. We need one
or two more good factories. Manu
facturing establishments do not or
ganize themselves, and when factories
move from one town to another, as
they sometimes do, they are not apt
to move to a town which does not
hold out Inducements to them.
Let
us have one or two more good factor
ies. We can get them if we all unite
and help a little. Then we will need
some new houses for the men who are
to work in the factories to live in.
The building of these houses will give
employment to more people; Then we
will need more clerks to look after the
needs of "these people and perhaps
later more business places to supply
them with the necessaries of life. The
home markets will be better and this
will help the farming conynunity.
Thus one new establishment becomes
She first link in an endless chain which
helps every man, woman and child in
She village and the adjacent country.
The call for the mass meeting to be
held at the opera house next Monday
has been signed by a large number of
the prominent business men of the
town, all of whom are Interested in
this movement, and the opera house
should be crowded with people, all
anxious to do what they can to help.
Wai rath's band has volunteered to
turn out and furnish music for the oc
casion. They will play a street con
cert if the weather is mild enough so
the instruments will not freeze up,, in
which case they will transfer their
music to the Interior of the edifice.
The meeting will be called to order
at eight o*clock, and It is to be hoped
that before that time every chair will
be occupied by some one who is Inter
ested in the welfare and growth of the
village. Come prepared to join an
organization which will have for its
object the securing of new industries
for the village.

gambling of any kind and they are
lived up to in every respect.
We
don’t believe there is a mother or
wife in town, with ordinary sensu
and intelligence who would not rather
know that her boy or husband was at
the club rooms among good associates
than to not know where be is at all.
Intoxicating liquors are not even
allowed in the rooms and intoxication
is not tolerated. What he implies by
"hell-bole” we do not know, but we
presume it is a place where he is not
wanted, and if that is what he means,
he’s right, it is a "heli-hole”. The
morality of the club and its influence
for better things is so far above its
detractor that comparison is out of
the question.
Such "spasms” are
only emitted from diseased minds
whose brains have been fired by
imaginative Christianity. It's a good
thing the Lord is forgiving or a lot
of such people would find a quite road

Oklahoma and the Indian Territory
are to be admitted as one state, under
the name of Oklahoma. New Mexico
is to be admitted as one state, Arizona
le to be left in the territorial stage
for a while longer. This was the de
cision reached by the Senate last
week. But will the House accept thia
alteration in its bill? As the measure
passed the House last April it pro
vided for the consolidation of the
four territories into two states. Okla
homa and the Indian Territory were
to constitute one of these. Arizona
and New Mexico were to be the other.
The Senate adopts the OklahomaIndian Territory part of the bill and
perhaps the other portion of it by
admitting New Mexico as a separate
state, thus giving Arizona a chance
to appeal for admission separately in
the next session of Congress or in this
one. The Democrats all along have
favored the two-state idea for New
Mexico and Arizona. Some Repub
licans joined them, and the outcome
has been that the separatists carried
the senate. A hard fight is likely to
be made by the house in the conference
against the proposition to create two
additional states in the arid region.
The friends of separate statehood for
Arizona and New Mexico made a long
and resolute contest in the House in
favor of two states for those territor
ies, but they were beaten.
If the
House shows a like determination
now on that point the result will be
that New Mexico will be left out and
Oklahoma and Indian Territory will
constitute the only slate to be created,
or else the entire bill may be’lost.
Prof. P. G. Holden, of the Iowa
state Agricultural College, deserves
to be called a philanthropist.
Iowa
is a great agricultural state, and a
hummer in producing corn. In favor
able years that state has immense
crops of corn, but the rainfall is not
constant and the winds are very
strong. Often when a floe crop is
growing the winds beat it down and
spoil much of the grain. Prof. P. G.
Holden studied the case and sought to
produce a species of corn which would
be less subject to these failures. He
decided that a corn which produces
ears close to the ground would meet
the requirements, and by judicious
selection produced the variety needed.
Then be traveled the state over, lec
turing the farmers and distributing
seed corn. As a result the state of
Iowa produced 100,000,000 bushels
more of corn this year than she pro
duced in 1903, and the farmers expect
to double that Increase next year.
The man who accomplished this result
draws a salary of *5,000 a year, and
probably there are many tax payers
who consider this an exorbitant price
for his services. If he had done noth
ing more in his life time, be will have
accomplished more for his state than
it over with your neighbors. and get any half-dozen of lie millionaires will

Prosldcnt Roosevelt and those who
are standing by him in his crusade
against trust ravages in the United
States are having the fight of their
Ilves. Congress seems to bej unwill
ing to adopt measures to curb the
repaclty of the railroad corporations
and all efforts io so far have been
futile to bring the railroads under
effective control, yet we believe tbe
time will come when freight rates will
be controlled by others than the mon
ey interests. The standard oil cor
poration has secured practical con
trol of all the railroads west of the
Missou-i and
many of the im
portant eastern connections.
The
group of men who control the rail
roads seems to be’more powerful than
tlie government, and its power grows
mightily. The senate baa become
scarcely more than its creature and
subservient agent. The system makes
senators as readily ^as it appoints
traffic managers or hires lawyers.
The common people should make note
of this condition and when the chance
is offered, lend a band to assist our
president in bls efforts to curb an
evil which threatens theentlrecountry.
The man who is the possessor of a
piece of land has the game in his own
hands. There is no promoter or slock
gambler who can^jeopardize bis invest
ment. Where it is purchased with
judgment, land is always worth the
money paid for it and it is bound to
increase in value. It cannot be de
stroyed or carried away. It requires
only industry to make it profitable
and
productive.

Rural telephones are being installed
all over the country.
Where tele
phone companies are not construct
ing them the farmers are doing so
themselves. It will not be many years
until nearly every house in this county
will be connected with some telephone
line. The latest line to go in is one
extending through Carlton township.
This one will be constructed by the
farmers and will later be connected
with the Citizens Telephone company.
The Department of Agriculture is
preparing 10,000,000 packages contain
ing 50,000,000 packets of seeds for the
annual distribution, but should the in
junction asked the Washington courts
last week to prevent the use of a seed
packing machine be granted, the dis
tribution of the seeds may not take
place at all this year.

Take Helen Ormsby, for Instance. When
Helen was about 16 it was plainly to be
seen that she was developing into a
beauty, one ot those rounded creatures
of the clear brown akin which is so rare,
lustrous eyes and heavy blue-black hair.
I remember my pleasure in looking a*,
her. Then It was dulled by the fact that
she talked with a rasping drawl through
her nose—but her nose was so beauti
fully shaped that it helped condone the
sin. Only 1 hoped her mother would no

Mrs. Ormsby was a bright, energetic,
pleasant little woman who might rea
sonably be supposed to know how to
bring out a girl's best points and restrain
her faulta I forgot at the time that
mothers who can see their daughters'
faults ire as rare as dollar bills grow
ing on oak trees. Helen’s command of
polite clang was marvelous. If she had
devoted the same energy to French and
German she would have been a wonder.
Even then she was quite a belle and the
boys of her age showered her with can
died attentions.
"Helen really oughtn't to be golng'out
evenings while she is In school," her
mother often, said, anxiously. "I want
her to go to college when she is through
here, and there’s her music! But when
half a dozen boys each want her to go
to the same party and she begs so. what
can 1 do? There’s no denying she is
popular."
Helen certainly had popularity, what
ever else she lacked.
Her bumble
slaves jumped at her bidding. Mrs.
Ormsby, unhappy between the convic
tion teat adoring youths should not In
terfere with her daughter's education
and a good deal of pride over being
mother to such an attractive young per
son. worried and enjoyed her misery.
’That young Lapham would call every
evening to see Helen If I’d allow It," she
said one day when Helen was nearing
her eighteenth birthday. "His father is
the rich Lapham you've heard about and
the boy is certainly handsome.

that!"
Helen still talked with a twang, was
sublimely condescending to her mother
and took the good things of life her
parents showered on her with gracious
disdain. She wps a blase young person
Instead of a girl just ready to begin to
enjoy living. Mrs. Ormsby spoke rather
anxiously now when she mentioned col
lege. It seemed there had been a ruc
tion In the Ormsby family on this sub
ject Four more years of study did not
meet the approval of the young lady of
the household. The gracious, broad
minded, reserved and sweet womanhood
her mother had dimly pictured always
as within her daughter's grasp, the nat
ural complement of her beauty, seemed
distressingly elusive. Helen's only in
terest in life was to outdistance all the
other girls as a favorite. Young Lapham
still continued her shadow. Mrs. Ormaby was not so enthusiastic.
"He isn’t the right sort," she confided
to me one day when she was blue.
"Helen doesn't notice, because he spends
money on her like water; she thinks he
is splendid, but he is selfish and lazy and
rude and I know he Is too fond of liquor.
He never earned a dollar In his life."
Mrs. Ormsby grew frantic. Helen
only laughed at tears and expostulation.
Young Lapham gave her a good time, a
fine time—all the girls envied her. What
was the use of looking ahead of to-day?
it was not in her philosophy.
Even* one else expected what hap
pened long before the Ormsbys dreamed
of it. Young Lapham called one even
ing and smiled carelessly at the politely
frigid reception he got from the older
members of the family.
"You know that day Helen spent out
at her cousin's in Evanston last week?”
he began, abruptly. Mr. and Mrs. Orms
by looked up. "Well, she wasn't there.
She and 1 took a little run up Into Wis
consin and were married. Show them
your ring, Helen.”
Laughing triumphantly, the girl did
so. She coaid not appreciate the stab
shs had given her father and mother,
sitting white-faced. Incredulous, sick at
heart. She never will, for she Is selfish
to the core. She and young Lapham had
thought the whole affair a good joke.
So there Helen is to-day—when other
girls of her age are gayly and whole

Fresh manure should be applied as

HOW TO BUY A
first glance it would appear that buying a piano or an
organ is the easiest thing in tbe world, the only consideration being
the necessary equivalent. But today the instrument* of music are
a* variable a* watches, jewelry or precious stones. The danger to
the average buyer is, not that he will not get full value for his
money, but that be may be disappointed in securing what be expect*
or his need* demand. For example, tbe bead of a family, who
desire* to give bls children a musical education, needs an instrument
capable of endurance and not one especially elaborate in design or
finish. If be be in moderate circumstances be require* a good
piano, one equal to bard practice but not necessarily an instrument
of great renown or more than the average coat. If the piano is for
one proficient in music or an accomplished pianist, the instrument
best suited will be one of powerful toue.and strong endurance.
In piano and organ catalogs a very common announcement is
that every instrument is strictly high grade. Originally piano*
were not graded until the early 70’s when the commercial piano
appeared. Now we find pianos classified as High Grade, Medium
Grade, commercial and Stencil. The High-Grade instrument is
constructed along such lines that the finished product have ail the
characteristics that marks tbe greatest advance in piano production.
These instrument* are made by manufacturers who spare no
expense in either tbe material employed or the executing of the
plans according to which the piano is designed or built.
In tbe
Medium Grade it is a mistake to think that the words “medium
grade” implies any inferiority. On the contrary, they are well
planned and properly constructed. Tbe Commercial piano is the
product of business men. It is sold in large numbers to tbe dealers
who require instrument* with which to meet competition. It ha* it*
proper sphere in the world and does much to stimulate the ambition
of the people. The cheap or the Stencil piano is one the origin
of whose construction is unknown. They are the cheapest possible
piano, designated thump boxes. They are cheaply constructed,
sold by careless dealers or "direct by mail.” As a rule such
pianos are worthless.
There can of course be no fixed rule for the guidance of
piano buyers nor need there be any other than common sense
principles applicable to all business transactions. As a rule it is
well to patronize your home dealer. It is a fact that the margin of
profit expected by a dealer In a small town is less than that of a
large city dealer. Then, loo, be is easily accessible In case any
little attention to the instrument is required. Having once decided
on your piano do not permit your belief to be disturbed by the
contradictory talk of any rival salesman. In ninety-nine cases out
of a hundred tbe spiteful statement* are a lapse of decency born of
chagrin and the disappointment of defeat. Also bear in mind that
it takes great capital to sustain a piano factory. If your piano
is tbe product of a legal manufacturer you are safe from financial
loss. Your warranty obviates that. Only in the so-called Stencil
goods is there danger and no honorable dealer will sell such.
The number of pianos made today in the United States vary
between four and five hundred. Among this number are a great
many good ones.
While I handle several different grades of
pianos, I wish to call attention to my leader, the Chickering Bros,
piano, of Chicago.
It Is today tbe only piano made by a
Chickering. The experience of the Chickering Bros, in one
of the oldest
piano factories In the United State* has
ably fitted them for tbe manufacture of a piano of superior grade.
They represent the expert developement of the experience anu
schooling of Mr. C. Chickering and his brother, Frank Chickering,
who*e live* may be said to have been devoted to the working out
of tbe secrets of tone production and the art of piano manufacture.
Tbe construction is substantial, the material is of the best while
tbe casings posses* grace of external appearance and they are
warranted for an unlimited period of lime. If you wish any home
recommendation for this piano, call on any of the following people
who are fortunate in possessing one:

THE SIND OF TONIC THE PATIENT NEEDS.
Morow, Feb. 18—Within tbe walls
■of Che tar-famed Kremlin palace, and
almost underneath the historical tower
from which Iran the Terrible watched
the heads of his enemies falling be
neath the ax on the famous Red
■Square, and within a stone's throw of
the great bell of Moscow. Grand Duke
■ Sergius, uncle and brother-in-law of
Emperor Nicholas and the chief of the
reactionaries, met a terrible ueaVn
shortly before three o'clock Friday.
The deed was committeed by a single
terrorist, who threw beneath the car
riage of the grand uuke a bomb
charged with the same high-power ex
plosive which wrought Minister Von
Plshve’s death. Tbe missile was packed
with nails and fragments of iron, and
its explosion tore the Imperial vic
tim's body to ghastly fragments, which
strewed toe snow for yards around.
Every window in the great lofty facade
•f the palace of justice was shattered
-and bits of iron were Imbedded deeply
■in the walls of the arsenal, a hundred
yards away.
The Assassination.
According to late details, Grand
Duke Sergius, who generally was aoeompanled by his wife when out driv
ing. was on this occasion going to his
private Russian bath in his old official
residence la Tverskala street The
vehicle in which he rode was a plain,
shabby, closed carriage, such as would
not be likely to attract attention. It
was followed by detectives in a couple
ef cabs. Tbe grand duke was driven
rapidly and was half way across the
square between the great bell tower
and tbe Nicholas gate when the bomb
was thrown beneath bis carriage,
where It exploded, literally demolish
ing the vehicle, killing the grand duke
and fatally injuring his driver. The
assassin, badly wounded, was captured.
He refuses to give his name and glories
Ln his deed.
Head Blown Off.
The grand duke was Instantly killed.
His bead was blown off, actually being
separated from his body, which was
frightfully mangled.
Grand Duchess Elizabeth, who has
been engaged dally in tbe task of pre
paring comforts for the sick and
wounded Russian soldiers In Manchu
ria, was about to drive to the palace
to join her husband. When she heard
of what had befallen the grand duke
she was driven in haste to the scene
of the tragedy and knelt hatless and
coatless on the blood-stained snow and
murmured prayers for the welfare of
the soul of her slain consort
The only actaul'witnesses of the as
sassination were a couple of policemen
on beat In the vicinity. It still appears
to be uncertain whether the assassin
was In a sleigh or hiding in the tun
nel beneath the Nicholas tower.
Was Intesely Unpopular.
Grand Dime Sergius, who was a
brother-in-law as well as uncle of the
emperor, and who had exercised im
mense influence at court, was regarded
as the most reactionary of the grand
dukes. As governor general of Mos
cow he was intensely unpopular. His
advent as governor general of Moscow
was followed by expulsion of the Jews
from
the
central
provinces and
throughout his administration his rig
orous and harsh measures aroused the
greatest hostility, especially among tbe
students.
News Prostrates Czar.
St Petersburg. Feb. 18.—The news of
the assassination of the grand duke
reached Tsarskoe-Selo while the impe
rial family were entertaining Prince
Frederick Leopold of Prussia. It cre

1 recollection of iL There was a time
when he was a puppy, but he was an old
puppy. He had a sad look in his puppy
face as if he did not think much of the
into IL He had no giddy period such as
all puppies and other young folk are en
titled to. He never worried tbe cat nor
tugged at the curtains nor dragged over
shoe* from hall to kitchen. Nobody ever
stumbled over him, for he was always
in the right place, noberly taking care
of his dignity. He offered no familiar
ities and allowed none. From the first
he took life seriously and never wagged
his stumpy tail unless the occasion

He was then three months old: I was

He bad so fancy for children. He did
net dislike them, was never cross to
them, but he considered them trifling
and bothersome, just ns some grown
folks do who have forgotten their own
childhood. He seemed to have a fond

feeling He appeared to think himself

Immediately'after breakfast he might

�Talking About
Al a first glance it would appear that buying a piano or an
organ is the easiest thing in lhe world, the only consideration being
the necessary equivalent. But today lhe instruments of music arc
as varlqhk as watches, jewelry or precious stones. The danger lo
the averigM buyer is, not that he will not get full value for his
money, but that he may be disappointed in securing what be expects
or hi* needs demand. For example, the head of a family, who
desires to give bis children a musical education, needs an instrument
capable olendurance and not one especially elaborate in design or
finish. If he be in moderate circumstances be requires a good
piano, one equal lo hard practice but not necessarily an Instrument
of great renown or more than the average coat. If lhe piano is for
one proficient in music or an accomplished pianist, the instrument
beat suited will be one of powerful tone and strong endurance.
In piano and organ catalogs a very common announcement is
that every instrument is strictly high grade. Originally pianos
were not graded until the early "O’* when the commercial piano
appeared. Now we And pianos classified as High Grade, Medium
Grade, commercial and Stencil. The High-Grade instrument is
constructed along such lines that the finished product have all the
characteristics that marks the greatest advance in piano production.
These instruments are made by manufacturers who spare no
expense in either the material employed or the executing of the
6Ians according to which the piano is designed or built
In the
tedium Grade it is a mistake to think that the words “medium
grade" implies any inferiority. On the contrary, they are well
planned and properly constructed. The Commercial piano is the
product of business men. It is sold in large numbers to the dealers
who require Instruments with which to meet competition. It has its
prpper sphere in the world and does much to stimulate the ambition
of the people. Tbe cheap or the Stencil piano is one tbe origin
of whose construction Is unknown. They are the cheapest possible
piano, designated thump boxes. They are cheaply constructed,
sold by careless dealers or "direct by mail." As a rule such
pianos are worthless.
There can of course be no fixed rple for the guidance of
piano buyers nor need there be any other than common sense
principles applicable to all business transactions. As a rule It is
well to patronize your home dealer. It is a fact that the margin of
profit expected by a dealer in a small town is less than that of a
large city dealer. Then, too, be is easily accessible in case any
little attention to the instrument is required. Having once decided
on your piano do not permit your belief to be disturbed by tbe
contradictory talk of any rival salesman. In ninety-nine cases out
of a hundred the spiteful statements are a lapse of decency born of
chagrin and the disappointment of defeat. Also bear in mind that
it taxes great capital to sustain a piano factory. If your piano
is lhe product of a legal manufacturer you are safe from financial
loss. Your warranty obviates that. Only in the so-called Stencil
goods is there danger and no honorable dealer will sell such.
Tbe number of pianos made today in lhe United States vary
between four and five hundred. Among this number are a great
many good ones. While I handle several different grades of
pianos, I wish to call attention to my leader, the Chlckering Bros,
piano, of Chicago.
It is today the only piano made by a
Chlckering. The experience of tbe Chlckering Bros, in one
of the oldest
piano factories in the United States has
ably fitted them for the manufacture of a piano of superior grade.
They represent tbe expert developcment of the experience anu
schooling of Mr. C. Chlckering and hie brother, Frank Chlckering,
whose lives may be said to have been devoted to the working out
of the secrets
tone production and the art of piano manufacture.
Tbe construction is substantial, the material is of the best while
tbe casings possess grace of external appearance and they are
warranted for an unlimited period of time. If you wish any home
recommendation for this piano, call on any of the following people
who are fortunate in possessing one:

considered by a justice of peace.
The report of the village marshal
for the months of January and Feb

made, and fines to the amount of 919 35
collected, and two sentenced to the
county jail, was read and accepted.

Christian Scientists are hit by the
measure which proposes the following
amendment to the medical laws of the
state: '“Any person shall be regarded aa
practicing medicine within the meaning
of this act who shall operate oh, profess
to heal, or prescribe for or otherwise
treat any physical or mental ailment of
another." Mr. Bland is bitter against
the healers, and In his discussion or cne
amendment declares that the laws are
made to regulate the practice of medi
cine and to allow the Christian Science in
lists to operate under the state's laws is
extreme inconsistency. If his amend
ment goes through Christian Science in
Michigan will be killed.

Warnar Squelches Measure to Sep

Returning It to the
Legislature.
[Special Correspondence ]
lancing, Mich., Feb. 27.—Got. Warner
la looked to by the legislators for advice
bearing on the primary reform move
ment, which is the absorbing topic in
lawmaking circles In the city. The gov
ernor realises that some kind of a meas
ure must be put through by the solons in
order to satisfy the continued cry from
the people of the state for a primary law.
The conference held about two weeks
ago, between a number of prominent
senators and the governor, was but the
first step towards ascertaining the wish
es of the moving lights in the legists
tore. At the meeting a plan was mapped
out, which provided for a law modeled
after the New York bill, but as there
were no members of the house present to
the gathering it was not learned whether
the idea would meet with praise from
that direction. Now the governor pro
poses to call a meeting of the members
of the senate and house and, after find
ing the desires of both branches, to mod
el the measure accordingly. The solons
of both houses have fallen Into the habit
of looking to the governor for advice on
baffling matters, and anything which is
labeled “administration" Is the recipient,
of more than ordinary attention. It is
the policy of the governor to bring to the
front a bill which will be found popular
by all. Gov. Warner has an idea of bis
own aa to the bill, which will satisfy all
and meet the requirements of the mem
hers. Briefly, the governor's idea em
bodies direct election of delegates to
state conveiMlons; this to be done on the
same day air over Michigan; allow the
people of each county to select their own
way of nominating candidates for county
offices; giving each party the right to
choose its own method of nomination;
separate ballots for each party where di
rect nomination system was selected.
The governor says that be believes that
direct nomination of delegates to the
state conventions would satisfy the de
sire of the people for a new law, and declarre that the legislators should not go
to the extent of providing for the direct
nomination of candidates for the guber
natorial chair and other state offices.
Bay City Bepeal Vetoed.
The Bay Cities will be seen in harness,
an usual, for two more years at least, un
lens the legislature exhibits a burst of
unusual energy and passes the bill re
pealing their consolidation, over the
governor's veto. The repeal bill, which
was rushed through both houses, was
brought to a sudden stop by the gover
nor attaching bls veto to the document
and squelching the hopes of many prom
inent Bay City people who came to Lan
sing to bring to bear great pressure, in
order that the measure might be signed.
Bay City, wrought up over the passing
of the bill ia both houses, came to this
city 500 strong and swallowed up the
capitol, but, despite the pressure of men
of great prominence, the governor sent
ths document back without his signalure. There were others, too. who want
ed ths document vetoed, and during the
day the governor received nearly 200
telegrams asking that he snnb the bill,
ft being stated that it had been railroad
ed through the legislature. It Is now
likely that the legislature will be asked
to allow the Bay Cltyans to vote on ths
firinTiifd al L^>ti question.
Dark Outlook for Baksi.
The road seems clear, at the present
writing, for tbe passage of the Doherty

their convictions on the matter. ThebtU

Charge Official with Graft
Gov. Warner has taken steps to re
move from office Sanford N. Dutcher,
a member of the board of control of
the upper peninsula, who will have to
face grafting charges, If the accusatlnos made against him are true. Ths
accusations which have been made ■
state that Dutcher paid a low price
for a large allotment of wood and dis
posed of it to the state at a price
nearly trebling' its value. The charges
involve a sum of almost 55.000, said to
have been Illegally extracted from the
state. Mr. Case, a new member of the
board of control of the upper penin
sula Institution, is responsible for the
charges against Dutcher. Immediately
upon hearing of the matter the gov
ernor set the state machinery to work
ing. Maj. Loomis was sent to New
berry to gather information and Attor
ney General Bird was consulted. It
was decided to give Dutcher a hear

So many people who have apparently recovered from an attack of La Grippe are stricken

Grange Presents Primary BUI.
At the grange meeting held here
before the legislature convened it was
decided that a primary bill should be
presented to the legislature. This
measure was brought before the bouse
and the elections committee found
many flaws in Its construction. There
are many clauses which, the legislators
point out. are unconstitutional, and
several vital phrases are left out alto
gether. No provision is made for
bribery.

I felt my own surprise turning into

''Are they well?” I queried.
“Very well, and looking for you,"
said he, smiling.
We were up in our saddle, dashing
out of the yard in a Jiffy. Beyond the
ridge a wide mile of smooth country
sloped to the river margin. Just off
the road a great bouse lay long and

President Roosevelt In bis inaugural
address spoke Ln part as follows:
My Fellow Citizens: No people on
earth have more cause to be thankful
than ours, and this is said reverently,
in no spirit of boastfulness tn our own
strength, but with gratitude to the Giver
of Good Who has blessed us with the
- conditions which have enabled us to
achieve so large a measure of well being
and of happiness. To us as a people it
has been granted to lay the foundation
Mf our national life in a new continent.
We are the heirs of the ages, and yet
•we have had to pay few of the penalties
which tn old countries are exacted by
the dead hand of a bygone civilization.
We have not been obliged to fight for
our existence against any alien race;
and yet our life has called for the vigor
and effort without which the
manlier

and hardier virtues wither awi
away.
.
Under such condition it would be our own
faait If we failed: and the success which
■we hare had in the past, the success
which we confidently believe the future
will bring, should cause In us no feelIng of vain glory, but rathe- a deep and
abiding realization of all which life has
offered us; a full acknowledgement of
the responsibility which is ours; and a
fixed determination to show that under
a free government a mighty people can
thrive best, alike as regards the things

SOLOHS IN OIL WAR
WRONG* IN MICHIGAN.
PASS BILL OUSTING BAKER
tary from Health Board, la Put
with Little Opposition.
[Special Correspondence.)
Lansing, Mich., March 6.—It is quite
likely that Michigan will join the
coterie of states now waging war on
the supposed wrongs being intilcted by
the Standard Oil trust upon the people
of the stale. A ^solution providing
for a committee of inquiry Is the plan
Which is proposed to get the move
under way. It is very probable that
this resolution will be Introduced into
the house by Mr. Lord, ot De
troit, who is fathering the project.
The duties of the committee, the ap
pointment of which Is embodied In the
resolution, are to gather information
concerning the methods aud oi»eratlons of the oil company In the state
with the purpose In view of basing
theory for action upon Its findings.
Many other sister states have upon
the inspiration furnished by Kansas
entered upon an investigation of the
methods instituted by the giant octo
pus and the aid which Michigan will
extend toward the fight, should the
resolution go through, will materially
help the struggle which President
Roosevelt Is carrying on, with the ob
ject of righting any wrongs that may
exist la violation of tbe law. Speak
in* of his proposed effort
Mr.
Lord, of Detroit, says: "The Stan
dard Oil company has no pipe
lines in Michigan, as It has in some
of the other slates, and there are no
ell wells here, but the people of this
state are just as big consumers of oil
as they are anywhere else, aud it Is
the consumer that must pay the
freight. We all remember how com
petitors of The Standard have been
driven out of the Michigan field, and
if there is anything we can do to
strengthen the hands of President
Roosevelt, or the other states, which .
have started fights xgainst the mo i
Bopoly. the Michigan legislature ought
to do it, especially if there Is any
chance to benefit the people who use
oil. I have been told of a case in Clin- '
ton county recently, where somebody
obtained a judgment against the Stan
dard and where the price of oil was
immediately raised.*so that the people
Of that vicinity will have to pay the
judgment In the ead. Such things as
this ought to be looked Into.”

Official Party Arrives.
Several minutes before one o'clock
an extra loud burst of cheers from the
multitude just in front of the main
capltoi door called the attention from
the brilliant parade of uniforms fa the
street to the official party, which had
just come through the main door. The
official entrance was dramatic. All ex
cept those who were participating in
the ceremony were seated. When the
justices of the supreme court, with the
exception of Chief Justice Fuller,
emerged from between the Corinthian
pillars and marched down the sloping
carpeted aisle to their station they
were greeter with applause. The jus
tices wore their robes and skull-caps.
Then came the members of the diplo
matic corps, in their gorgeous uni
forms, and they evoked thunderous ap
plause. Led by Count Cassini, the
Russian ambassador and dean of the
corps, and followed by the others in
order of precedence, they took seats
on the right of the stand. Strolling in
after them came gnembere of the cabi
net, senators and representatives in
congress. Following on the heels of
tbe official party came Mrs. Roosevelt
and a party of friends; then, but a
moment later, the new vice president,
Mr. Fairbanks, and his escort arrived
and were greeted by tremendous bursts
of applause. As soon as Vice President
Fairbanks seated himself tbe cheers
ceased, the military presented anus,
every hat in the committees came off
and the great ocean of people set up a
perfect roar of cheers, fairly shouting
itself hoarse.
The President Appears.
Quick as a flash every sound was
stilled and ^resident Roosevelt, quiet
and composed _of demeanor, came from
between the gigantic pillars, escorted
by Chief Justice Fuller. A random
burst of cheers came from the front of
the crowd, as, with measured tread, to
harmony with the dignified step of the
chief justice, the president advanced.
In state down the long aisle of dis
tinguished guests. By this time all
were standing and nothing could be
heard above the roar of thunderous
welcome.
Oath Is Administered.
Chief Justice Fuller stepped to the
front of the pavilion constructed espe
cially for the use of the president dur
ing the ceremonies, and his clerk came
forward bearing a Bible. A bush, fol
lowed by absolute silence, fell over
tbe crowd, which but a moment before
-was cheering itself hoarse. President
Roosevelt raised bis right hand and
took the oath which binds him in sup
porting ths laws aud constitution of
and amid deep silence. So great was
the awe of the assembled multitude
that not the semblance of a demon
stration followed. Then the president
began his inaugural addrmts. arid as

gles to a chicken farm in the pastoral
regions ot Michigan, tbe outburst of
indignation he expected from his fam
ily, including all bis wife’s relatives,
was not long in coming.
"What! Give up your home In the
city and Immure yourself on a chicken
farm!” exclaimed hla wife’s elder sis
ter. “Tbe man must be crazy.”
"He seems quite determined,” said
Mrs. Harber, rather doubtfully.
"That comes of his reading so many
magazines," announced one of his broth
ers-in-law. "They're alwayrf full ot pipe
stories about people who made fortunes
raising chickens. You should take a
firm stand against It.”
Thus advised, Mrs. Harber made
feeble aud futile protest, for the new
more would ro®an separation from her
sisters, her cousins and her aunts and
the taking up of life's burdens in a
strange community.
"What can we do with tbe bouse?”
she asked her enthusiastic husband,
who had hitherto spent his odd moments
admiring bls home from various points
of vantage.
“We will rent It,” be answered,
promptly. "We will here no trouble
renting so pretty and well-situa,ted a
home m this. While we are making
money on our chicken farm In Michigan
the bouse will be bringing In more
money over here. It is a great scheme
do matter how you look at It."
Mrs. Harber knew her busband well
enough to realize that further argument
was useless and she sadly began mak
ing preparations for the hazard of new
fortunes.
"We’ll probably get somebody in her*
who will chop kindlings on the hard
wood floors and drive nails in the parlor
walls,” she warned her husband. "I
know the house will be rained.”
"Don’t worry.” he returned, gleefully.
"I’ve got that all fixed. The Joneses
will take the bouse. They have been
living in steam-heated flats so long that
Jones says they will just revel in a house
again with a big yard like ours, where
they can play croquet. He Is a flend on
cutting the grass. I understand.”
"Be sure and make them sign a lease,
then." cautioned Mrs. Harber.
"We
don’t want them moving out after a
month or so while we are away over
there In Michigan and then having
tramps move in or thieves cut out the
lead pipes.”
"Leave it to me.” said Harber. “I’ll
have everything fixed up in shape.
Why, you are going to have tbe time of
your life on this little chicken farm—
pure air and fresh milk and—and every
thing.”
"Are you going to have chickens that
give milk?" sniffed Mrs. Harber.
Her husband scorned to answer.
In due time the Joneses came over and
were delighted with tbe bouse. Mrs.
Harber explained about the storeroom
and the shed and showed Mrs. Jones
where the storm sash were kept
"1 suppose we’d better make tbe lease
for a year." suggested Harber.
"Oh. maybe it would be better to
make It six mouths.” said Jones. "You
may get ilred of raising chickens.”
"Not me.” said Harber, euthusi
Mtlcally. “I expect to slay in Michigan
, indefinitely. However, we'll make ft
six months if you My so. By the wa>,
we would Hke to keep one of the spare

“But what about the Joneses?" Mked
Mrs. Harber. In alarm. "They won't
want to give up the bouse."
"Oh. that’ll be all right." said Har
ber, confidently. “It’s our house, you
know. They wouldn't stay where they
weren't wanted."
When he explained his change of heart
to Jones and suggested the advisability
of that gentleman moving out. Jones
laughed long and loud.
"Why. we’re just beginning to like it,"
he declared. "We haven't the .'east Idea
of moving till our lease expires. You
furniture is now and then, but thia Is

Sadly Harber returned to bis wife's
mother’s home, where the couple barf a
single room. There they settled down
to wait for the lease to expire.
A month later Harber went around to
the house to get some tableware out
of one of tbe packing boxes in the store

that the coroner's jury at Honolulu

A conference was held here Friday be

matter to the bottom. No intimation

DEADLY REVENGE.
Man in Wichita Kills Head of Firm
Through Whose Failure He
Buffered Loss.
Wichita. Kan.. March 11.—J. C. Casey,
head of the Casey Wholesale Mercantile
company, was shot through tbe bead
and Instantly killed by James Oliver
Fnday. Oliver lost >23,000 in the failure
of the Casey A Garat Mercantile com
pany a few months ago, and tbe misfor
tune preyed on his mind. He demanded
the money when the firm was reorgan
ized, and had several heated arguments
with Casey over the loss. Friday, while
Casey wm seated at his desk, Oliver
slipped up behind him and fired three
times without warning. Oliver walked
to police headquarters and gave hlmeelf up. Casey wm prominent In church
aud society circles.
"Oh. you coward!”
It wm a clexr, ytaithful feminine
voice. WU’.rom looked up as the
house door azammed and a girl with
very pink cheeks and abundant yellow
hair—a very pretty girl—came run
ning down tbe steps and caught up
tbe howling dog in her arms. ’
"How could you be so cruel as to
hit a poor little doj like that!'’ she
demanded, turning an Indignant pair
of very blue eyes on Wistrom.
"1—I didn’t exactly mean to bit him
so hard." lied Wistrom in some con
fusion. "You see—"
But the girl turned her back on him
contemptuously and ran up the steps
and into the house, carrying her pet
with her.
It wm a remarkable thing, but Wis
trom instantly regretted billing tbe
dog.
All day long he thought of the girl
with the «uue eyes and yellow hair,
and ths more he thought of her the
more poignant became his regret.
After all, on eminent authority. It was
the nature and delight of dogs to bark
and bite, and why should they be
struck with an umbrella for following
a purely natural Impulse T
For weeks Wistrom looked in vain
at tbe bouse as he passed for some
sign of the pretty girl.
He did not
even see the dog. On Sundays, when
he wm at home all day. he did noth
ing but sit by the window watching
to see her. Some time soon, he
thought, the chance would come, and
then—
It came at last, that chance. Wis
trom wm walking down an obscure
street one afternoon when he saw a
forlorn and mud-caked little dog that

There was something familiar about
that dog. Wi trom thought, and he

President Roosevelt is a man of

talks be says things of interest to
Americans. Monday night he gave
an address before the Mother's Congress at Washington aud again took
occasion to express bis views on
“race suicide." The gist of his utterances is as follows, and will be of intercet to all: "The nation is in a bad
way if there is no real home: if the
man is not a good husband and fatbor, if he is brutal or cowardly or seiAsh; if the woman has lost her sense

home life ia healthy, unless tbe average man has honesty, courage, com■on sense and decency, unless the
average womau is a good w'fe and a
good mother, able and willing to bear
and bring up healthy children. The
primary duty of the husband is to be
the home-maker; the primary duty of
the wife is to be the helpmeet, the

house calling for two examinations
each year instead of one. Speaking of
his convictions on the subject Mr.
Lord says: “While it ts possible to
have more frequent examinations than
once a year under the present law it
has been found that when a btnk is
examined oftener than once a year, de
positors are apt to become frightened
and start a run on the bank, thinking
there must be something wrong. This
bill would* make at least two anaual
examinations the regular thing, and
there would be no excuse for anybody
to become alarmed.” He also proposes
several others bits of bank legislation.

It all happened
nearly two years

instincts point to the paths of 'high I

day."
Thomas H. Smith, genera] manager
of the T. H. & S. railroad, was the hero
of the tale. Neither bls name, tbe name
of his road nor the name of the victim

bad little use for those artificialities
that are to human society what veneer

coarse grain. Percival H. Livingston I

of the big system that looked on Presi- |

on the clubhouse veranda. "We’ve got I
to take him down. I'm gettin* sick of '
hearing of ’Noo Yawk’ and how crude
and half-baked Chicago is. I only wish
there was some one here that could
beat him at golf, but he's one too many
for us!"
Now President Smith's game at golf
was an unknown quantity. His girth
was ample, and he never was known
to toil In the sun behind a bounding
ball. Rather he caused a drought in
the stewards pantry, and when he left
after bls occasional visits he left be
hind many a weary waiter worn out in
answering his call for "Scotch, with
some ice and a trifle of lemon in it!"
And he considered he had done his duty
by tbe noble and ancient game
So Ostwenteia was surprised to bear
him In heated argument with Living
ston one afternoon, when even the
hardened players had surrendered to
the midsummer euu.
“Maybe you think I can’t play!” said
President Smith.
"Why—why, it I
couldn’t beat the life out of any dilet

eat my shirt!”
He was apoplectic.

"Handicap!" snorted Smith, angrily.
“Handicap! You make me laugh. I was
going to offer to discount you, but we’ll
play even. And right here let me tell
yon that you can get a dinner right in

And thus the game was arranged.
Smith spent some time with bis cad

Livingston gasped. It was a good 300

bushes off the course. Smith smiled
superciliously as he accepted a check
from his caddie. Again he made a few

effort Again he and his caddie shaded
tbeir eyes and watched tho flight
••Bully!’’ said Smith at last, lowering
his hand. "Best iron shot I ever made.
How was that kid! Bully, eh?" And
the caddie grinned appreciatively.
Again Livingston essayed a drive
through the bushes, but they were too
thick, and he lost three strokes in get

his hands still in his pockets, waiting
for the New Yorker to appear from be

“Tough luck," said the Chicagoan,
and his tone made Livingston want to
fight “Pretty fair distance, but blamed
poor direction. Better try a brassle on
that next shot Good lie for a brassle,

Now, It wasn’t a good lie for a brassle
shot and Livingston knew It It made
him furious—so furious. In fact, that
on the next shot he “topped” his ball,
and It rolled tantalisingly just 20 feet
The New Yorker’s calm was gone, and
his remarks were not at all what they
should have been. Smith still loafed
around, smiling In an aggregating fash
ion.
Livingston tore up the turf, something
he had not done In years, and played
like a duffer, and all the while Smith's
smile grew broader.
Livingston got on the green In 13.

the war, has succeeded, as he did after
the battle of Llaoyang, In extricating
the remnants of his army from a posi

before believed would result in its an

from Llaoyang has been considered the
most masterly ever executed, but it Is
far overshadowed by this latest feat
of the Russian general, who has taken
personal command of the troops. After
fighting for nearly three weeks, losing
in killed, wounded and missing prob
ably a third of his army, or nearly
100,000 men. and a fourth of his ar

SL Petersburg, March 13.—The im

nouncement that a new army will be
raised and the forces In the far east re
organized; that Vice Admiral Rojestveusky will be ordered to sail on and try
conclusions with Togo, and that the
war will be prosecuted to the bitter end.
Not Out of Danger.
SL Petersburg, March 14.—The Rus
sian general staff reports that “tbe
main body has already completed Its
retreat and the rearguard southward
are falling back slowly." What either
the "main body" or the “rear guard”
consists of has not been definitely
fixed, but from the dispatches from
correspondents with the Japanese and
Russians, the two combined must be

The Losses Enormous.
As to the losses. Gen. Kuropatkin
now admits that 50.000 wounded were
carried off rhe field. This, with the
25.500 dead left on the field, the <n.0O0
prisoners and the wounded «eft in the
hospitals, comes.somewhat nearer the
latest Japanese estimate that the to
tal Russian losses were 155.000. At this
rate Kuropatkin cannot have more
than 100.000 effective fighting men
with him. Th* Japanese losses have
been remarkably light In view of the
length and severity of the fiahtlng.
The total loss is reported at 41,222.
In all the speculation as to peace the
one point that is coming to the front
Is that Russia would prefer to settle
directly with Japan without the aid of
any third nation. This ia in line with
the dream of many leading Russians
that the natural allies 1n the far east
are Japan and Russia, they being the
only nations whose domains border on
Korea and Manchuria, both having
other Interests besides those of trade.

A
dainty luncheon was served which con
sisted of coffee, sandwiches, olives,
cake and ice cream.
As the ladies
entered they were given a card upon
which was a picture to represent
statesmen, authors, titles of books or

the diversion was a contest to see
which lady could- give »he most cor

innovation and was entered into very
heartily by the ladies.

Monday, Judge Perkins of Grand
Rapids denied a motion on behalf of
the respondent in the case of the peo
ple vs. the liev. Clarence M. Welch
for a continuance over the March
ttrm. The defendant stated in court
that he had 34 witnesses that he de
sired subpoenaed at the expense of
the county. The judge stated that he
thought he would not be warranted in
making an order incurring such a
large expense, but might agree to sum
mon 10 witnesses. It was given out
that another effort would be made to
continue the case over the term. Tues
day Mr. Welch’s attorney made a
motion in circuit court to continue the
case over to the September term, and
in the affidavit presented gavn the
names and addresses of persons whom
he claims are material witnesses for
him in the criminal case pending
against himAfter argument by
counsel for the respondent and by the
prosecuting attorney, Judge Perkins
announced that he wuuld take the
matter under advisement. The court
having previously declined to sum
mon these thirty-four witnesses, whose
places of residence are scattered over
the state, including Ann Arbor, Sagi
naw, Mancelona, Traverse City, Mus
kegon, Belding, Ixiwell, Sparta and
Grand Rapids, at the ex]>ense of the
county, but expressing his willingness
to summon ten of them, Attorney Ryan
asked for delay to enable the respon
dent to earn sufficient money to bring
these parties to court at his own ex
pense. By their testimony, be said it
was expected to prove that the allega
tions made by tbs '*omplainant against
the respondent are false. They would

Lansing. Mich., March 27.—The death
of the Stone primary bill again brings
Into the public eye the unsettled ques
tion of a provision for this end of legis
lation. The Stone measure, sometimes
known as the “grange bill," provided for
the direct voting on all nominations, in
cluding the United States senators. This
measure is declared by legal lights to be
full of flaws, and probably its death was
the only just method to dispose of IL
Although the bill died and deserved such
a fate, it has brought about agitation in
the primary reform line, and its death
may possibly result in a measure of mer
it being put upon the legislative mar
ket Just now the bill which stands out
most prominently is that measure which
Is known as the Double-Ivory bill. The
governor and administration forces are
known to favor this document and
should no measure witn merits of more
value appear it-is regarded as possible
that this measure may be tbe primary
•lection law. Whatever bill dealing with
primary reform goes through, one thing
is known, viz.: that the measure must
correspond with the Ideas which Gov.
Warner has upon the subject The bill
just now occupying attention provides
for direct nomination of governor, lieu
tenant governor and members of the
legislature: other state officers to be
named by state convention; counties to
have local option as to county officers;
parties to decide the matter separately,
party option extending to governor and
lieutenant governor. Gov. Warner favcys the provisions. In speaking of its
possibilities, he says: "I was very anx
ious that the conditions of two years
ago—absolute deadlock—be not repeat
ed. I have been very desirous that a
bill on Che lines of the platform be

tration might be able to fulfill all Its
pledges. The bill that was Introduced
by Messrs. Ijrory and Double is very
close to the lines of the platform, and is
such a bill as I should be glad to sign.
My endeavor has always been in tbe
direction of the fulfillment of party
promises.”
Bill Must Suit Governor.
The oftrepeated prophecy that the
measure which is to become a law must
be advocated by the administration
shows itself in the death of the Stone
primary bill and tbe indignities which
were heaped upon the measure wrought
up its sponsor to the highest pitch. Mr.
Kelley declared that the measure needed
a thorough renovating, and even at its
best it would not do for the legislature
to let the document go through for the
signature of the governor. Mr. McCar
thy told of tbe deadlock of two years
ago. and said that a reasonable bill must
be concocted that would pass both
houses. Mr. Galbraith was merciless
in his denunciation of the Stone meas
ure. saying that there was not a clause
in which some flaw could not be found.
All Want Deadlock Avoided.
The deadlock of two yeans ago taught
its lesson, and It As a repetition of thia
which ail. democrats and republicans
alike, wish to avoid when a primary bill
is framed. No class is more determined
to avoid a deadlock than are the conservatives. The whole trend of tbe session
is that a good, wholesome measure must
be framed. The bill must be'one which
will satisfy republicans, democrats
conservatives, liberals and adminlMraLion people. It can easily W been that to

Doherty Pressing Measure.
Senator Doherty’s measure providing
for exempting from taxation mortgages,
land contracts and all other notes of
credit except bank notes, is being
pushed by its sponsor with all the ener
gy which the administration leader has
at his command. Tbe bill was sent to
the committee recently, and If Mr. Doh
erty is to be believed success will attend
his enterprise. He has taken a canvass
of tbe situation and but three votes were
needed, at the present writing, to pass
the measure. The tax commissioner opposes the bill because it would take from
the tax rolls several millions of dollars,
but the former occupant of the office has
written to Senator Doherty declaring
that the bill is a very good idea, and iu
enactment would stimulate business
throughout the state.
Big Fruit Crop Due.
"The largest crop ever known in tbe
history of the Michigan industry," is
positively the only way in which the
prospective yield of fruit for the year
1905 can be described, declare optimis

of winter killing of the peach buds and
other tree fruit which is now past, and
with no buds winter killed, and from the

quality and larger fruit the scientific
peach growers will probably find it nec

serial, entitled:
Little France
A ROMANCE OF THE DAYS WHEN THE GREAT LORD
HAWKE WAS KING OF THE SEAS.
By CYRUS TOWNSEND BRADY
Hera is what the Art Amateur, of Hew Turk, says of the story: Mr. Brady
stands at the head of contemporary writers of sea romances. This is
the most picturesque and stirring tale which he has offered to the public.
He has opened a fresh field in which readers will meet "the great Lord
Hawke** and his picturesque environments for the first time, it is believed,
in fiction. Mr. Brady has spent much time in the consideration of his
theme, and his local coloring is singularly vivid. His hero, an eighteenth
century American serving in the English navy, in English waters and at
Quebec, passes through a series of engrossing adventures that culminate
in tho wonderful conflict on the Brittany coast which showed the power
of the Quiberon touch. The gallant fighting on sea and land, so
brilliantly sketched, is accompanied and softened by a charming love tale.
As a love story alone, this romance exhibits a piquant and fascinating
quality that will move the sympathies and interest of readers. As a
sea romance, it shows a broader
canvas and bolder touch than the
author has used before. His sea
fights are superb'in their graphic
power. "Little France" is not only
delightful history, but it brings with
■BS if
it the genuine savor of the salt and
the TerX breath of the waves.

A ROMANCE OF THE DAYS WHEN “THE

CYRUS TOWNSEND BRADY
CHAPTER I.
FOG OFF USHANT.
OR two days H. B. M. brig-o<war Boxer had been groping
about in a thick fog off
ths island of Ushant on
the Breton littoral. At least, in de
fault of astronomical observation,
that is where Lieut Philip Grafton,
her commander. Imagined his ship
Portsmouth, England, with dispatches
from Admiral Boscawen, then com
manding at Gibraltar. She had made
a quick passage from the Straits and
had met with no bad luck or misfor
tune until she had run into the fog
mar Belle Isle, since which time she
had been slowly working her way
northward, as the fitful breezes and
mist-hidden seas permitted. The dlsporunce, and haste in their delivery
had been enjoined upon the young
commander. Therefore, he chafed
nnder the vexatious delays with all
the impatience of a sailor to whose
well-nigh insurmountable by his sea
philosophy.
To his impatience was added a vivid
eonsdousneas of probable and Immi
nent danger, for the Boxer was drift
ing about within easy striking dis
tance of the great French naval de
pot of Brest, which was filled with
the capital ships and cruisers of the
absence of any English fleet nearer
than Gibraltar, swarmed with menof-war coming and. going. At that
time no English blockade had been
established on the French seaboard,
and the ships of the “well beloved”
king ran in and out of Brest at their
pleasure.
So long as the fog held, the English
brig was safe from, observation and tbe
danger of capture by a snip of su
perior force
was minimized; it
amounted to almost nothing in fact
But when the fog lifted—unless it
were accompanied by a good breeze,
which would scarcely be likely at that
season of the year—the Boxer would
be at the mercy of anything of suffi
cient size that happened
along.
Though young in the service. Lieut.
Grafton had earned a well-deserved
reputation for daring and skill, and
gladly would he have welcomed an
•pportunlty for a brush with a cruiser
of a force equal to, or even somewhat
greater than, his own. English ships
then were accustomed to giving odds;
Indeed, unless there was some prepon
derance in force In favor of the
French, they took but little credit for
a victory. But a vessel which would
at all match his own was not likely
to appear.
Grafton was one of the few Ameriean provincials In the royal naval serv

squadron of the colony of Massachu

As s reward for his services on that
considerable—stout old John Grafton
had been given a commiasioo In the
king’s navy, and was now a rear-ad

home In Massachusetts. His son. who
had followed his father's profession,
also enjoyed the royal faVor and bad
risen rapidly through the various
grades of the naval service to the rank
of lieutenant. He had. in his brief
career, given evidence of superior
ability, and it was thought with his
Influence that he would eventually ob
tain high rank in the service.
On the morning of the 3d of July,
1754, the young captain was restlessly
pacing the weather side of the small
quarter-deck of his brig in close con
sultation with his first lieutenant, a
kindred spirit, named Stanhope.
"Dash me, John!" be exclaimed Im
patiently, dropping the quarter-deck
for the nonce, as they were out of
hearing of everybody except an old
seaman at rhe wheel, who had sailed
with Grafton's father from boyhood
and had, naturally, attached himself
to the fortunes of the son. "Duh me, !'
but thia is vexing! Here we lie toss- |
tng about like an empty bottle in these
beastly swells and not a thing to tell

"True, CapL Grafton,", answered the
lieutenant, giving his superior his

Seeing the hopeless and helpless con

The French could plainly see that
there was no boat left on the Boxer;

Presently an officer, attended by a sur

Mot Tot Asked.
Washington, March 30.—Neither Rus
sia nor Japan have asked President
Roosevelt to assist them in ending the
war. So far as the Washington governmen Is aware Emperor Nicholas has not
yet weakened in his announced deci
sion "to prosecute the war to the bitter
end.” From the outset of the war the
president has taken the position, as has
been repeatedly announced by Secretary
Hay, that he will do anything in bls
power to assist Russia and Japan to a
peace basis when his services shall be
acceptable to the belligerents. But it is
authoritatively stated that no official
of the Washington government is ambi
tious to pose as the mediator between
the czar and mikado.
Japan Won’t Accept
London, March 31.—Baron Hayashi,
the Japanese minister, declared that be
had no Information in regard to the an
nouncement, that Russia had indirectly
made known to Japan the negative con
ditions on which peace might be con
cluded, namely no cession of territory
and no Indemnity, leaving Japan to de
termine whether peace negotiations
could be begun upon that basis, but he
said unreservedly that the terms then
mentioned could not even be considered,
and added: "A cession of territory and
an Indemnity are the only points nego
tiable, as Japans ante helium demands
have already been secured by Japan.”
M. Takahashi (the Japanese special
financial commissioner) in an inter
view said: "The war cost between $250,
000,000 and $300,000,000 the first year,
and it is estimated that it will cost $350,

be unprecedented fn the history of great
wars that no Indemnity and no territory
be given up by the vanquished.”
Peace Not in Sight.
Washington, April 1.—M. Jusserand.
the French ambassador, is of the opin
ion that peace is not in Immediate pros
pect between Russia and Japan. He so
expressed himself after a visit to Presi
dent Roosevelt Friday, to bld him goodby before the president goes on his
southwestern trip, and said that both
combatants at this time appeared to be
bent on continuing hostilities for a
satisfactory adjustment of their difficul
ties. He added that he did not talk with
the president on the subject of media
tion, and he did not believe that the
Washington government had yet con
cerned itself officially in any movement
looking to a cessation of the-war. It was
learned, however, that the prospects of
peace were discussed at length.
A New Proposal.

to the peace reports circulated on the

V. W. FURNISS’ UNUSUAL OFFER
Seils Dr. Howard’s Specific at Half

“It isn’t often that we have faith
enough in the medicine put up by
other people to be willing to offer to
refund tbe money if it does not cure ”
said Von W. Furniss to a New* man
who dropped into his store, “but we
glad to sell Dr. Howard’s specific
for the cure of constipation and dys
pepsia on that basis.*’
‘‘The Dr Howard company, in
order to get a quick Introductory sale

and, although we hayesold a lot of it,

ENGLISH CLING TO LUGGAGE
Britishers Show Antipathy to Being
Separated from Baggage
While on a Tour.
Perhaps the strangest fact about the
English on their travels Is their antip
athy to being separated from their lug
gage. The system of registration of the
continent and the checks of the United
States are known to them, but pater
familias believes in seeing for himself
that the various Items are labeled and
put into the van, and If a change pf
trains is involved, his anxiety. In spite
of all assurances. knows no bounds. Nor
have the railway companies enjoyed
much support in their efforts to intro
duce systems of collecting and delivering
baggage. Possibly the motor car may
do aomethlng to break down this preju
dice. and people will learn that ’heir
treasured personal belongings can be
sent from place to place without their
own supervision, and then less cum
brous and antiquated methods of dealing
with them will be adopted. For it can
hardly be claimed that the four-wheel
er or railway omnibus to the London
terminus, the hand-porterage, the la
beling and all their attendant worries
are In keeping with the facilities enjoyed
by travelers In other matters.

Fragmentary reports of the dreadful

Three Missionaries Killed.
A telegram received by the Churtu
Missionary society reports that three
of the society’s representatives at Kanray—Rev. H. F. Rowland, Mrs. Daueble
and Miss Lorbeer—were killed by the
fall of the mission house during the
recent earthquake. All the other mis
sionaries in Punjab are believed to be
safe.
It now appears that 400 of the Sev
enth Gurkhas were killed at the
Dharmsala cantonment by the col
lapse of a stone barrack building in
consequence of the recent earthquake.
In addition, 20 members of the First
uattallon and 50 members of the Sec
ond battalion of the First Gurkhas
were killed, while it is roughly calcu
lated that from 20 to 30 per cent, of the
native population of the surrounding
villages were killed. In addition to che
Europeans already reported killed at
Dharmsala, seven children of Euro
peans are said to have perished.
Relief Step* Taken.
News comes from Simla, tbe sum
mer capital, and where Viceroy and
Lady Curzon are now staying and
which sustained some slight damage
from the earthquake, that the viceroy,
aided by Lady Curzon, has begun
active steps to relieve so far as possi
ble the destitution and suffering.
Communication by road and railway
Is practically cut off and the supplies
at Simla are all that can be had for
some time. These are inadequate, but
are being distributed to the best possi
ble advantage. Unless stores arrive
from Calcutta and other Indian centers
the death roll of the earthquake will
be augmented by thousands claimed by
famine, fever and cold.

King Supervises Belief Measurer.
King Alfonso was shooting at Carabanchel when he heard of the disaster,
and immediately repaired to the scene.
His arrival was the signal for ovations
from the crowds. The king was deeply
moved, and insisted upon personally
supervising the relief measures. Work

bris, and recovered the mutilated bodies,
fragments, of flesh and limbs.
Insiplent demonstrations weredirect

for the disaster. Processions of womeu

announce that they will ■ fight to the
end.
Chicago. April 10.—The second day of
the teamsters' strike against Mongomery Ward & Co. closed with the warring
factions farther apart and very little
chance of a speedy settlement The day
was marked by riot and violence in the
downtown streets. The police protec
tion was the most formidable that was
ever given a Chicago firm under similar
conditions, but it was not sufficient to
prevent some of the nonunion teamsters
from being roughly handled. Eggshells
filled with acid were introduced into the
fight, supplying a new weapon for strlk-
Chicago, April 11.—Riots and block

by the police, who used their clubs
freely, and by sending policemen ahead
of the wagons serious delays
the
wagons were prevented.

FOUR
DIE BY GAS FUMES.
Woman and Three Children Asphyx-
ment House.
New York. April 7.—Thre children
and an aged woman were killed and
half a score of tenants in a tenement
house here were made unconscious
Thursday by gas escaping from a stove.
The dead are; Mary Rogers, aged
75; Kate Clark,, aged 12; Helen Clark,
aged ten; Elizabeth Clark, aged seven.
The children slept in a front room of
their home with Mrs. Rogers, who was
in the employ of their father. Samuel
Clark, janitor of the house. In a rear
room slept Mr. and Mrs. Clark and a
small son. When Clark arose at five
a. m. Thursday he detected a strong
odor of gas. He entered the children's
room and was almost overcome. Mak
ing his way back to his own room, he
discovered that his wife and son were
stupefied. He then called for help. The
gas had made its way through the build
ing and persons in many other apart
ments were either stupefied or already
unconscious. A policeman who beard
Clark's cries broke Into the room where
the children and old woman were and
raised a window. He then discovered
that all were dead. An examination of
the gas stove showed that the pipe had
broken during the night. It is supposed
that it broke from the force of tbe gas.

I assumed toe duties of toe office
when tbe township had, as to highways

and a mass of rotten timber and

It’s true, on my own responsibility
I ventured too initiative as to perma
nent construction of roads and bridges
In Castleton, and while it’s also true
that expenditures ran well up, I shall
submit a comparison of expenditures
for a period of years, and considering
results, which alone count, leave the
people to frame their own conclusion
as to the most expensive administra
tion of toe office.
For instance, in the year 1902 tbe
expenditures for higbwav and bridges
was 62,666.02, iu 1903 it wa« 61,004 49.
As the result of this expenditure you
had April 1, 1904. what?
I expended during my year as com
missioner of highways a total of
64,786.86 for highways and bridges,
and the heavy end of this expense
was rebuilding the results of former
expenditures in toe years 1902 and 1903,
and I am willing to leave the people
to estimate results, and 1*11 venture
the opinion that not a child now liv
ing in the township will grow up to
pay taxes to rebuild the work of last
year.
There is now on hand steel for eight
bridges and twelve thousand feet of
oak plank. All of this material is
paid for and ready to be placed In
position tbs coming summer, and if
pronerly placed the township will be
in as good shape as to bridges as any
township in the county.
Now look
back to toe situation a year ago and J
think you will be able to draw the
conclusion that, after all, it’s results
we want.
Now, to cover just one other point
that I have understood was at one
time rumored, read the following let
ter, which I think will explain itself
and coyer tbe point fully:
Hastings, Mich. Mar. 28, '05
Mr. Frank Price, Com of Highways,
Nashville, Mich.
Mr Dear Sir: Replying to your
favor of recent date relative to detail
of amount of steel used by you last
season, I am glad to be able to make
you memorandum you ask for.
I am sure however, no one knowing
you can give a moment's consideration
to so an absurd a statement as you
outlined and as for others, my books
show that you purchased from me
78,844 pounds of steel, a trifie less
than 40 tons, for which you paid me
delivered in Nashville, 61,570 38, and
I can say to you that no Com ever
purchased this material (new O. H
steel) at anything like this price be
fore. nor could it be sold for this
price today.
This material at the price paid in
average sale would have cost you
62,365, and this is a price actually
paid for steel last season, in your
vicinity.
Hoping this may be of use to you
and thanking you for your letter of
inquiry, I am,
Very truly yours.

STARTS ON MAY FIFTEENTH.
Free Rural Delivery County Service
for Barry County.
The poBtoffice department has issued
orders that the county service of rur
al free delivery of Barry county shall
be established on May 15th. This
will be good news to the farmers of
the county, as it was not expected that
the complete service would go into
effect before July 1st. Under the new
syttem practically every farmer in the
county will have bis mail delivered
daily to his door, tbe few exceptions
being in isolated cases.
From the Nashville postoffice there
will be one new carrier, making five
In all, but the name of the new carrier
is not yet known. An examination it>
to be held at Hastings Saturday for
carriers from all over the county, and
the applicants passing the best exami
nation will be appointed to the posi
tion for which they apply. There are
several applicants for tbe position tor
the Nashville route, No. 5., which
will be a trifle shorter than the other
routes, and will receive therefore a
somewhat smaller compensation than
the others. All of the routes from
Nashville will be changed somewhat
and in order that the patrons will
know which carrier will visit their
place we give tbe course of the new
routes in full, as they have been ap
proved by the department.
New patrons should secure their
boexs and get them placed in posi
tion before time for the route to start
so that there may be no misunder
standing or -delay in receiving their
mail promptly. In order that there
may be no misunderstanding, in re
gard to boxes, we quote a few of tbe
more important rules regarding boxes.
The boxes must be of metal, and
approved by tbe Postmaster General.
Experience has shown tbat boxes
opening at side or top are more con
venient than those opening at tbe end.
Tbe dimensions must be not less
than 18x6x6 inches.
All boxes must be provided with an
adjustable metallic signal so designed
and attached as to fully serve the pur
pose of indicating whether or not
there is mall in the box.
Each box must be erected by the
roadside, so that the carrier can
easily obtain access to it without dis
mounting from his vehicle, and with
out deviating from his route.
Persons neglecting or refusing to
comply with the regualtions will be
regarded as not desiring free rural
delivery and the carrier instructed
bot to serve them.
More than one family may be nermltted to use the same box; provided
that written notice of such agreement
is filed at the postofflee.
In all service heretofore established,
and wherein inappropriate, ?insafe and
unsuitable boxes are in use, the de
partment expects that natrons will
conform promptly to the requirements
if they desire the continuance of the
service.
The full rules of the Department
in regard to boxes may be seen upon
application at the postoffice.
A large portion of Assyria town
ship is to be served by a route which
will start from Assyria postoffice,
receiving the mall from Bellevue io
the morning. Tbe routes from Quimby
and Morgan are to be retained, al
though they will be changed some
what.
Woodland is to have one
additional route, making three in all.
The entire county service requires
forty routes, eight more than are at
present in service.

Chicago, April IL—Four persons

nine o’clock Sunday night, having
been asphyxiated by gas, which wax

If tbe statements of many leading leg
islative lights are to be believed, Mr.
Galbraith and Senator Doherty are
framing a political issue in forcing the
fight for the exemption of mortgages
and other credits from taxation. Nearly
all the farmers are pitted against ths
measure. They claim that it would raise
taxes and lower values. In the house
there are 30 farmers, and it is said that
all of them are arrayed solidly against
the move. But of all the arguments
against the bill, the most strident at the
moment is the talk of political results.
Farmers in lower Michigan, it is said,
uniformly oppose the bill. The question
of credits comes up prominently in the
repeal of the charter of the Grand Rap
ids Hydraulic company, a bill which was
recently speeded through the houses by

WHIST ONCE A CRUDE GAME
First Known as “Triumph,” Whence
tho Word “Trumps” Is Said
to Be Derived.
Whist was first called "triumph,** a
name which was afterward corrupted
into “tramp.*' The eighteenth century
saw whist in it* primitive form, th*
whole object of the game being to win
tricks by lending high cards or by
trumping. Then came the era ot Hoyle,
which may be said to have lasted from
1730 to 1860. and taught players to think
not only of their own hands, but of th*
other hands also, and to take advantage
of the positions of tbe cards in them..
Hoyie also taught that tramps might b*
move profitably employed than In simpl*
tramping, and showed that they might
obtain secondary advantage Id crick*

power. It was not until 1860 that th*
philosophical era can be said to hav*
begun, and the origin of the new movement was a knot of young men at Cam

Whist school. This body kept records
of its games, but no one thought of mak

VON W. FURNISS,
Attorneys Had Desert
ed Him.
Deserted by nie attorneys and a
chain of evidence to tightly woven
around him by the prosecution that
further hearing in the case was un
necessary, Clurence M. Welch was
Monday convicted of the charge of
illegal parentage. The sentence hand
out to him was that he must contribute
S3 per week toward the infant's sup
port for the next two years and 42 per
week thereafter until the child shall
obtain the age of 14 years. Tbe child
is now nearly two years old. The
court ordered that he should give a
bond in the sum of 91,000 to carry out
the order of toe court,, in default of
which he should serve a jail sentence
of six months. Welch has not up to
the present time filed a bond, and
says be will not, and Is consequently
dow a prisoner in tbe Kent county
jail.
The case has attracted unusual at
tention in the circuit court at Grand
Rapids, the court room being crowded
at every session afid standing room
at a premium. No less interest has
been taken here, where Welch was the
pastor of the M. E. church for two
years, and while It was evident to all
who followed the case closely that the
defense was as thin as a mist, they
were prepared for no such dismal fail
ure on his part to prove his innocence.
The trial was started Wednesday,
March 29, and has occupied tbe at
tention of the circuit ci urt up to the
time of ending,
Monday, making
twelve days. The facts in the case
are well known to our readers, and
many contend that tbe punishment
does not fit the crime of which he
stands convicted. Miss Caven, at the
time be became acquainted with her,
and began U> show his attentions, was
but a simple, uneducated and unso
phisticated country girl, having no
mother to guide her steps and un
fortunately for her and all concerned,
by tbe testimony brought out in the
trial, not having tbe love due a child
from its father, was an easy prey to
bis designs. Her testimony and that
of others showed that be took advant
age of her condition and not only
that but used his standing in church
and society to further his unholy
lust. He made the girl believe that he
was helping her and when her sus
picions and those of others were
aroused used the cloak of God to
cover his debauchery. After he had
accomplished her ruin he cast her
aside,
getting her signature
to
affidavits with which he thought he
could clear himself, but these failed of
tbeir purpose and we believe had the
trial gone to the limit they would have
been given little consideration by the
jury, as the purpose of them was too
evident.
If he was not guilty they
would not have been necessary, and
the straightforward story of Miss
Caven regarding them was so plausi
ble that their real purpose was readily
seen.
It was developed after the trial had
progressed a few days that his only
hepe lay in proving an alibi, to dis
prove his victim’s testimony on dates,
etc., and to this end a typewritten
statement was fixed up laying out the
line of testimony to be given by his
witnesses. This developed in the
testimony of his wife, but the wife's
testimony was so hopelessly weak that
it was not hard to see that It was not
her own mind she was giving but
that of her erring husband, and'those
who know Mrs. Welch here attach no
blame to her but rather sympathize
with rer, realizing that it is no more
than any woman would do If a chance
band. Thus tbe alibi was picked
threadbare before even Welch came
to the stand. The clap that ended the
trial came when Welch w^h on the
stand and after he had stated that he
was not in Grand Rapids between
April 1 and April 11.1902. Miss Caven
had testified that she bad received a
telephone message from Welch asking
her to come to Grand Rapids on April
9: she said Welch and she remained
two nights at the Kent hotel, and on
April 11 went to the Hermitage, where
they rented a room for three weeks.
Proprietor Moran substantiated her in
so far as Welch rented a room of him
on April 11, and remained three weeks.
Welch, his wife and son Lester and
Miss Gaskell testified that Welch re
mained at Ann Arbor from April 1 to
I April 11. During his testimony Welch
testified that he was told by J. 0.
Diilen of Nubville of the stories
Nina's father wu circulating about
the preacher.
“You know Mr. Diilen well?” uked
the prosecutor.
belief be was guilty and his testi
mony a series of falsehoods.
Welch stated after the sentence had
been passed and be was being led to
the jail, that he would lay in jail un
til tbe magota carry him out piecemeal
through the key hole before he would
pay the judgment, and he will in that
case be confined in jail at least six
months to satisfy the law and possibly
longer.
Tuesday Prosecuting At
torney Brown said that Welch will
contribute to the child’s support or
spend tbe next eighteen months behind
the bare.
“Welch can ay old the Circuit court
judgment by serving six months in tbe
county jail,” said Mr. Brown to The
Press. “Then when he regains bis
liberty if he does not help support the
child of which he has been adjudged
the father, I will have him arrested for
non-support. He may get short sen
tences, but I will guarantee that he
will spend most of his time in jail dur
ing my term of office If be doesn't con
tribute to the child’s maintainance.”
Following is the report of the trial
rom Friday up to the ending as given
in tbe Grand Rapids Herald:
(Continued on page 7.)
THE OTHER SIDE
Editor Nashville News:
.
Please permit me to.use a little space
in the columns of The News to add to
the discussion regarding the extension
of the Thornapple river drain pro
posed by the drain commissioners of
Barry and Eaton counties.
In last week’s News the subject was
ably and extensively argued in behalf
of Nashville and Castleton townships,
showing the “imaginary" damage and
expense to the village and the injury
to the land along tbe river below the
village.
Now, Mr. Editor, what builds up the
village of Nashville? Is it the dam
across the Thornapple river and the
mill connected therewith? Does the
mill pond add to the value or beauty
of the village? Would the keeping of
the dam and mill there as now con
structed add one dollar to tbe value
of the village or vicinity without the
help of the farmer? Could your enter
prising and wide-awake Utile city
prosper or continue without the aid of
the farmer?
Now let me say that what goes to
build up, sustain and advance tbe in
terests of Nashville should be encour
aged and nothing should be done to
drive away such help. If the farmer
is the backbone of all that goes to
make up tbe thrift and business of the
village—as none can deny—then the
farmer should be encouraged in order
to enhance the value of the surround
ing country and gain their patronage.
Now the hundreds of acres of low
land along tbe river above Nashville
Is of no benefit or value to the farmers
as it now la and If it could be drained
and made into land to produce hay,
grain or pasture, would it not add to
the value of Ute whole county?
If
the dam was removed no more water
will flow down the river than now, and
of course there would not be' a pond
or collection of water below Nashville
neither would the laud between Nash
ville and Thornapple lake be any
worse flooded or made more worthless.
Could the dam be removed and tbe
river dredged to tbe county line and
tbe river channel cleared of debris the
water would have a free flow,The land
would be drained and made produc
tive and Nashville, Castleton, and
Vermontville, yes, the whole county,
would-be healthier, wealthier and
more proud of the country we have
chosen for a home, and the visitor
looking over your beautiful little vil
lage or wandering around over the
country would have nothing but words
of praise for the enterprise and pride
of its inhabitants.
Now, Mr. Editor, don’t try to make
the people think that because Eaton
county has dropped local option that
we have any more water to empty into
Thornapple river and thence into Bar
ry county, than ever. Oh, no, wehave
only awoke to tbe fact that a little
enterprise is a good thing and we beg
of you to join us in the good work.

Vermontville, Mich.

Then I went out into the road and

Colorado Springs, Col., April 15.—Ful
ly 10,000 people assembled at the Santa
Fe station Friday night to welcome
President Roosevelt. Grand Army vet
erans were lined up on the platform, and
a band entertained the crowd during the
wail. Promptly at 7:30 o'clock the
presidential special train pulled into the
station.
Wild cheering greeted tbe
president as be stepped out upon the
platform of the car. Tbe president re
sponded to calls for a speech. saying in
"I am going to make a request of the
people of Colorado. I am off on a hunt.
One thing you cannot do on a hunt, and
that Is to carry a brass band. You can
not combine hunting bears with your
Fourth of July celebration, so 1 am going
to beg the people of Colorado to treat me
on this hunt just as well as the people o’
Oklahoma treated me on the wolf hunt.
If a lot of newspaper men start to come
in after me 1 will have to come home;
that is ail there is to IL The thing they
can do that will please me best is to let
me be on that hunt alone and pay no
earthly attention to me or to any of my
party while I am off in tbe mountains.
I want to ask the newspaper men, and es
pecially the newspaper men of this great
state of yours, a fair show, and not to
try to follow me up. If they do It prob
ably will mean that I shall have to give
up the hunt If they won't do it I will
agree that if anything of any earthly in
terest happens I will hare the news sent
out."
Kills Huge Bear.
Newcastle, Col., April 17.—President
Roosevelt, with customary good luck,
bagged his first bear Saturday before he
even had some within sight of his new
hunting camp. The animal, a 600-pound
cinnamon, crossed the trail of the hunt
ing party 15 miles from here, and the
dogs took up the chase. After a hard
run of a half hour bruin was overtaken.
The president, throwing himself from
his horse, awaited his opportunity and
brought down the game. Tbe animal
was skinned by John Goff, guide, and
the party proceeded, reaching tbe camp
at five o'clock. In addition to the presi
dent, Dr. Alexander Lambert and P. B.
Stewart, of Colorado Springs, ten men
rode to the hunting camp. Five more
are already at the camp, with everything
ready for the comfort of the party. Be
fore starting the president announced
confidentially that he was not going into
any hand-to-hand encounters with griz
zlies, nor to strangle any mountain lions
with bare hands. He does not expect to
bag a record-breaking amount of game,
and will feel satisfied if he gets one bear
during the whole hunt, and particularly

“One of our strong points in the case
was to prove that Welch was not in

and 11, 11* >2. It will be remembered
that his wife and two sonanio testified
and also himself. But when he arose
and expressed himself as being in doubt
on this point, there was nothing left
for me to do but withdraw from the

There were rumors current last night
that Welch would probably be prose

regard to this said that he heard noth

those statements he made which con

Tbe village of Nashville owes a
vote of thanks to Johnny Brandstetter
of Pralrievillr, who was the solitary
juryman who stood out against the
dredge coming down through the
village dam.
We understand that
the first vote was seven against the
drain and five for it, but ail the rest
were talked over to the drain except
Brandstetter, who had convictions and
sand to stay-by'them.
Mrs. S. S. Ingerson bas a bible
which is 133 years old. It is a bulky
affair, being printed on hand-made
laid linen paper.
The printing is
clear and many words in it have so
far gone out of use that to the present
generation the reading is interesting.
There is much in it that is not con
tained in the present revised bible.
Mrs. Ingerson prizes the book very
highly as it is a family heirloom.
Jerry Shoup enjoyed the hospital
ity of Marshal Appel man over Sun
day, for just cause. He came to town
Saturday and proceeded to absorb
more spirits than was good for him,
leaving his horse standing on the
streets all day. Appelman took tbe
horse to J. S. Beigh’s barn and Jerry
to the village jail, where he remained
until Monday morning when Justice
E J. Feighner imposed the usual fine
of <6.45.

We learn that, there is to be a
change in the Nashville bank, and
that it will be organized as a state
savings bank. Two practical bank
ers will associate themselves with the
new bank and will move to the vil
lage for a permanent home, bringing
outside capital, and we understand
that all of tbe capital stock is spoken
for. The members of the old firm of
Barry A Downing will retain stock in
the bank and their affaire will be
settled up there. We shall probably
be able to give full particulars next

With but possibly one exception,
the John Butcher murder trial, the
circuit court of Eaton county in now
engaged in the hardest fought legal
battle ever known in criminal cases in
this judicial circuit. George Tubbs,
a young K alamo township farmer, is
on trial for the killing of Ditch Con
tractor John Bouts last November.
He is represented by two of the best
criminal lawyers in this part of the
state. Attorneys Frank A. Dean ana
Garry C. Fox, of Charlotte and, if the
counsel can clear the defendant be has
made the best selection possible. Both
are brilliant in the law and first-class
in nresenting arguments to the jury.
The prosecution is being ably handled
by Prosecuting Attorney Peters assist
ed by former Prosecutor Dann.
It
will be remembered that Mr. Dann
was prosecutor when the shooting took
place and was in charge of the lower
court examination of the defendant
and had the preparation of the early
part of the case now in progress. Not
withstanding his inexperience In crimnal practice, Mr. Peters Is demon
strating bls aptness for the work and
is making a highly creditable showing
In the case now on trial. Mr. Dann’s
former experience makes him a val
uable assistant.
Elder Tubbs to hear the Trial.
Before proceeding with the examina
tion of jurors, the attorneys for the
defense presented a request that the
elder Tubbs, Levi and Charles, father
and uncle respectively of the prisoner,
who are Implicated with the young
man in the killing, be permitted to
attend lhe trial.
The prosecution
opposed the plan but Judge Smith
ruled with the defense and the old
gentlemen were brought in court and
took seate directly back of the young
man’s counsel.
Claim Jury List 'rregular.
County Clerk Moyer was sworn at
lhe request of Attorney Fox, to show
that the township of Benton and one
district in the city of Charlotte had
been omitted in drawing the regular
panel, due to the fact that the officials
of the respective towns, having that
matter In charge, had neglected to
furnish the clerk's office with the
proper list of names as required by
law. Attorney Fox made an effort to
have the entire panel thrown out, be
cause of the omissions sworn to, but
the court overruled the motions and
the work of examining jurors was
commenced by Mr. Peters.
When
court adjourned last night onlv one
juror, of the regular April panel was
left in the jury box. He is Frank D.
Lamb of Eaton Rapids.
Hard Work to get a Jury.
At the adjournment last night 155
had been examined and another spec
ial panel of thirty has been ordered,
drawn for today’s sessions. The first
special panel of one hundred names
was exhausted at ten o’clock yester
day. The second special panel of
twenty five was depleted at five o’clock.
The regular panel was exhausted a
few minutes after the afternoon ses
sion Monday, making an adjourn
ment at two o’clock necessary. Thus
far Lhe defense has made 20 out of a
possible 30 per-emptory challenges

box last night, but it is certain some
of tbe members will be excused before
the jury is sworn.

peare comes to town. However, his
comedies are as thoroughly for laugh
ing purposes as his tragedies are for
tears. This Is especially emphasized
in "The Taming of the Shrew.’’ Does
not the name suggest it?
The recent demand for plays of the
higher class, especially Shakespear
ean revivals, has assured Miss Ralph
and her management of success and
therefore no expense has been spared
in connection with this production,
especial attention Laving been given
to scenery and costumes in detail.
Unlike most Shakesperean plays, it is
said of "The Taming of the Shrew”
that its plot is most readily grasped
and always thoroughly understood by
the audience, and from the rise of lhe
curtain on the first act until the finale
of the last act it is one continuous
laugh.
Miss Ralph is ideally adapted to the
part of Katherine, possessing all the
qualifications necessary to make II
stand out in her career as a triumph.
Her experience in the clasic drama
and in support of many of the popu
lar stars in this country is a great
advantage to her in this particular
play. The supporting company con
tains many interesting players,’all of
whom are especially picked and en
gaged for their individual roles.
The staging of the piece, as well as
the direction of Lhe lour is under the
personal direction of Robert Allen,
whose experience In this line of work
from coast to coast with such stars as
Marie Wainwright, Charles S. Han
ford and Warde and James is a guar
antee of a faithful performance.
Thd gowns worn by Miss Margaret
Ralph as Katherine in "The Taming
of the Shrew" are faithful reproduc
tions of old plates and prints repre
senting exact and correct copies of the
dresses worn in the period of-theplay.
From an artistic standpoint they- are
beautiful in the extreme and without
a doubt will prove to be the most exaulslte creations seen in Nashville
this season. The feminine portion of
the audience everywhere she has
played have gone into raptures over
them. Miss Rai oh has a regal car
riage and does full justice to her
gowns by carrying them in dashing
style.
The play affords excellent
opportunities to all the ladies of the
company for display of beautiful
quaint costuming and they have
availed themselves of that opportun
ity in consequence of which the play is
a series of beautiful Shakesperean
pictures.
This is the same actress, the same
company and the same play, as will
be at Powers' opera house in Grand
Rapids on May Ibth and 19th. and
we oelieve Nashville people will ap
preciate such a magnificent produe
tion being brought home to them.
In spite of the expense of securing
so strong an attraction, the prices
will remain as usual. General admis
sion 35 cents. Children 25 cents. Re
served seats 50 cente. The sale of
reserved seats will open al Von Fur
niss* drug store at nine o’clock Sat
urday morning, and no seate will be
sold before that time, so that all will
have an equal chance to secure good
A PLEASANT EVENING.
Members of the Nashville court of
Foresters, with their wives and fam
ilies, to the number of about seventyfive. assembled at the pleasant hall of
the lodge Monday evening and passed
one of the most enjoyable evenings in
the annals of the order in Nashville.
The evening was spent in a social way
until about nine o'clock, when those
assembled were called to order and a
splendid program lasting about an
hour was presented, among the most
pleasing features of which were several
songs By the male quartette, com
prised er Messrs. Slout, Beard, Felghner and Purchis, their numbers being
heartily encored.
After the program was completed
the company repaired to the Bon Ton

himself proud in caring for the guests.

shoes of McDerby. There are reasons
for all things. A few of the reasons
why you should buy your shoes here.
FIRST—No shoes will be permitted to leave the store unless they fit perfectly.
SECOND—Because we sell tbe Jenness Miller shoe for women at 93.50.
THIRD—Because we carry the best and largest assortment of Children’s shoes in town.
FOURTH—Because we are careful Ubyers, and the fact that we buy nothing but what we can reccommend.
FIFTH—Every pair is guaranteed w represented when told.
SiXTH—Because you‘11 not be urged to buy because you come in to look.
SEVENTH—We sell the best 93 shoe for men and women in town. Come in and we’ll tell (you why.
EIGHTH—Because we aim to have just lhe shoes most people want at the prices most people want to pay.
NINTH—Because we sell the Top Round shoes for men.
All we want is one trial.

m HAT night he determined to

^possibility of which had come
to him that afternoon. Indeed, it had
grown upon him with each passing
moment. He lay awake for hours after
he had retired and Anatole bad been
dismissed, waiting until the people In
the chateau, except the guards at the
gate and the watchmen on the walls,
had all gone to sleep. And for a true
knight his thoughts at least were re
creant. since he dreamed not of the
Lady Anne but of freedom.
Toward midnight he arose, dressed
himself quickly, and softly stole
through the deserted halls until he
came to the unoccupied chamber In
the round tower. No especial watch
was kept upon him, no guards were
stationed upon the tower and but few
on the seaward side of the chateau.
Moving circumspectly be had met no

He stepped quickly through the great

Away on the horizon twinkled the
faint yellow light of the English ships.
Far below him In the shadow of the
cliffs the waves were breaking In sul

shore. He could hear the rhythmical
persistent beat of tbeir tireleu assault
upon the rocks, see the white water,
shot with phosphorescent sparks,
churned Into foam over the reefs at
the foot of the cliffs.. *
He hesitated as ha surveyed the
acene; although hte purpose was un

on the solid floor of the balcony. The
Idea of disregarding her summons did
not once occur to him.
"Were you doing this for me?”
asked the girl innocently, still clit*lng
to him as if afraid to release him.
“Mademoiselle Anne!” he cried In
great surprise and annoyance, "why
are you here?” He was trembling vio
lently from his exertions and the tenso
emotions of the past few moments.
"Why not. Sir Philip? You are here
yourself, you see," she answered un
suspiciously. approaching him and lay
ing an innocent hand on his arm and
looking steadily at him.
"Yes but I—come Into the tower,”
he said drawing her back through the
window into the room. How her eyes
gleamed tn the moonlight!
What
depths were there, what unfathomable
mysteries lurked within their shadows!
He hsd never seen them so before.
They startled him—those eyes so soft
ly tender, so deeply blue. And the ex
quisite pallor of that face framed in
the misty blackness of her floating
hair—tbe girl was beautlfuL
Following him Into the chamber she
stopped unconsciously where the moon
light streamed in through the window.
For the first time he noticed what she
wore in the bright Illumination. Ap
parently she was dad In her night
dress with a loose wrapper Hastily
thrown about her shoulders: her little
bare feet gleamed tike marble on the
stone ioor. One hand hung by her
side, with the other sbe Instinctively
gathered the wrapper across her breast
with a movement at once modest yet
charming.
“Why, you are In your night-robe!”
he exclaimed tn astonishment, but not
raising his voice for tear of attracting
attention. "Your feet are bare and on
these damp stones! You’ll catch your
death of cold! My dear child!”
He forgot that he was her knight,
and stooping down Hfted her slender
form In his strong young arms. She
half-struggled a moment and then ac
quiesced. What was he to de with
her? The carpetless room was bare of
furniture and, save for themselves,
empty. He hesitated, stepped Into the
window, sat down upon the low sill,
and set her on his knee, holding her
firmly, carefully, tenderly. She, too,
forgot that she was a lady, and nestled
pgalnst him as any child might have
done.
"Now tell me.” he whispered—they
spoke softly all the time—“why did
you come here, Anne?"
It was the first time he had
dressed her without a title.
"I do not know," she answered. "I

GOOD SPRING TONIC.
Wanted—A echopl teacher, for dis
trict No. 9, Maple Grove, known as
Not a Patent Hedidne Advertisement, tbe Guy school.
but Good Advice Just the Same.
DAYTON CORNERS.
An editor who is either a widower or
downright amoitious passes out the
following advice for the springtime:
“On the approach of spring—warm
days, sunshine and balmy air—most
people think they must take a tonic or
a blood purifier of some sort. They
feel so languid, so tired, so good-fornothing, that they are sure they need
some sort of medicine to tone up their
system and give them new zest in life.
One of the best tonics we know of,
one that g<-es far ahead of any bottledup tonic or blood medicine to be found
in the drug store, is simply to get out
doors and go to work. You have pos
sibly been staying in the house all
winter, In an overheated bouse badly
ventilated, eating coneectrated, heat
producing foods. You have bad very
little exercise and your system has be
come clogged, and the organs of the
body are torpid and unable to do their
work properly.
“Open up your windows and doors
and let the sun and air get in and puri
fy and renovate your house, and while
it is doing that you just go out doors
and go to work at something.
“Clean up your back yard. Dig out
the old tin cans and stones and sticks;
rake up all the litter and make a bon
fire of It. Then sweep the yard nice
and clean. Select a part of it tor a
flower garden or a vegetable patch.
Get a spade and spade up the earth,
pulverize it and get it in good condi
tion.
)
“Now plant some flower seeds. Lark
spurs, marigolds, sweet-Williams,
pinks, verbenas, popples, primroses,
four-o’clocks, ragged robbins, pe
tunias—good old-fasioned flowers that
will give yon bloom and beauty all
summer long. A little work morning
and evening and you will have fresh
lettuce, young onions, peas, tomatoes
and many other vegetables all summer
long.
*
“And all this time you are getting
your spring tonic, outdoor work. Af
ter a few hour* work digging in the
fresh earth and breathing the out-door
air the languid, tired feeling will dis
appear and you will begin to feel the
exhileration of ronr existence. Al
noontime, instead of saying you baye
no appetite, can't eat anything, you
will be so hungry that you will be
ready to eat anything set before you,
and rellah it too. But in tbe spring
time leave off the heavy, heating food
of winter and eat plentiful of vege
tables and fruite.
Lettuce, celery,
spinach, greens—these are splendid
tonics as well as healthful foods.

k__________________________________________________
The trial
George Tubbs, the
young Kalamo farmer, charged with
the murder of John Bouts, has been
in progress in the Eaton county cir
cuit court at Charlotte since Friday
noon and will probably be completed
today. A jury was finally secured
about 11 o'clock Friday morning,
after four and one-half days hard
work, and the exhaustion of the regu
lar and four extra panels of jurors.
In all 235 jurors were summoned.
The case of tbe people is in the
hands of Prosecuting Attorney Peters
of Eaton Rapids and ex-Proaecutor
Dann, during whose term of office the
shooting occurred, and who had
charge of the preliminary examin
ation. The defense is represented by
Garry C. Fox and Frank A. Dean, two
lawyers of splendid ability in criminal
cases. The trial has been bitterly
fought from start to finish and the
legal battles have been sharp and fre
quent.
The two older Tubbs’, father and
uncle of George, and who are charged
with somplicity In the affair, were al
lowed to attend tbe sessions of tbe
trial.
The News presents In full and ver
batim the testimony of Cecil Powers,
the principal witness for the prosecu
tion, who was working for Bouts at tbe
time of the shooting and was an eye
witness of the affair; also tbe complete
testimony of Levi Tubbs, father of the
respondent, and principal witness for
the defense. The testimony of these
two witnesses covers very completely
both sides of the case, the testimony
of the rest of the fifty witnesses being
either corroborative of these two wit
nesses or of comparatively minor im
portance.
George Tubbs, on the stand in bis
own defense, used a revolver to illus
trate how the shooting was done, claim
ed It was in defense of his father; that
be was weak physically and under the
excitement of the occasion might have
been week mentally. Denied that be
went down to the drain to prevent
Bouts working and said be took the
revolver along to shoot rats, but ad
mitted making an affidavit when try
ing to secure ball that his only object
in going to tbe drain that morning was
to prevent Bouts working.
Thirty-four witnesses in all were
sworn for the defense, which was clos
ed yesterday noon. The arguments
are now being made, Dann and Fox
consuming the time yesterday afternoon
while Dean and Prosecutor Peters are
closing the arguments this morning.
The case will probably go to tbe jury
some time this afternoon*
Prosecuting Attorney Peters present
ed tbe case to the jury, and after tell
ing the story of the affair, called to
tbe witness stand Cecil Powers, whose
complete testimony follows:
(Continued on page 2)
ANOTHER DRAIN JURY.
Will Go Over tbe Ground Thursday
Afternoon, and Listen to Argu
ments Friday Morning,
Judge Mack has impaneled another
S*y to pass on the merits of tbe '' Big
ornapple*Extenaion drain,” and
they will go over the ground this week
and endeavor to arrive at a decision.
The jury is composed of the following
gentlemen: Geo. H. Nelson, S. R.
Rodgers and Homer Flowers of Prair
ieville. Fred Hughes of Orangeville,
Hale Kenyon and Will Moore of Free
port, Alvab Soeber of Rutland, Chas.
Cock of Hope, John F. Williams,
Hiram Aldrich and Ross Cadwallsder
of Barry, C. E. Nickerson of Lacey.
The jury will go through here to Ver
montville on the noon train Thursday
and commencing at the proposed ex
tension, which is the railroad bridge
this aide of Vermontville, will follow
along down tbe river until they reach
the lower end of the drain, which la a
little west of George Coe’s land, west
of the village. This will probably
consume all of the afternoon, and tbe
jury will convene at the opera house
Friday morning to listen to the argu
ments for and against tbe drain. The
village will be ably represented by
attorneys and the battle promises to
be a hot one. The opera house was
secured,as it was thought that no
other place in the village would ac
commodate those who will want to
listen to the arguments.

Welch a card bearing a picture of an

in a paroxyam of tears. Wild it was
a recommendation that Welch buy a

On another occasion there came to
the jail, a card bearing a portrait purKrting to be that of Welch. He was

inacriptiou, besides the address was:
“Give my regards to ‘daughter’ Al

under the picture, was thia expression:
"She looks good to me from where I

There were several cards with rhy

hurried to premature dissolution.

Alabastine is tbe only durable

for them. Kalsomine stuck on tbe
wall with animal glue, and wall

Alabastine is ready to mix by tbe

One Third Off!
AVING purchased tbe photograph gallery
of J. C. Hard, I take this means of noti
fying my patrons and others, and to dis
pose of the surplus stock I have decided
to make a big cut iu price for the next 3b days.
Therefore, commencing next Saturday, May 6. L
will give One-Third Off on the regular prices of
frames, mouldings, framed pictures, and orders
for pictures from negatives now on hand. The
acquisition of the Hurd stock of negatives em
braces all those made by E. H. VanNocker. C. J.
Whitney and Mr. Hurd, and I now have about
15,000 negatives—too many to carry—and a great
many of them will be destroyed. To give ail a
chance to get pictures from these negatives I will
for the next 30 days give a discount of one-third,
hence if you want pictures from these negatives
it behooves you to order now.
I have now the largest stock of mouldings in
town and to reduce it will make the same cut.
The stock embraces all grades and you can surely
find what you want at a less price than you ever
heard of before. If you want mouldings for
your rooms now is tbe time to buy. If you have
pictures to be framed now is the time to get them
framed. Our prices were already low and this
cut will put them down where it will be cheaper
than to steal. Don't forget, next Saturday the
sale opens, and closes in 30 days.
The Hurd stock has been moved to my studio

[Special Correspondence ]
Lansing. Mich., May 1.—Without a
dissenting vote, the house last week
passed the anti-trust bill, introduced by
Mr. Bland, which defines as Illegal all
combinations or corporations Intended
to monopolize any branch of trade or
business. Corporations already In ex
istence as well as those yet co come are
affected by the measure. One provision
in the bill nullifies any agreement not
to engage in any specified occupation.
The bill is probably the most sweeping
la its character of any like measure yet
brought before either branch, and tbe
assertion that its presence in the Michigan legislature waa instigated by a socalled trust makes its passage even
more remarkable. The tale that runs
with the measure is that it was Introduced by the "fish trust” for the purpose
of terminating the ten-year contract
which the corporation has effected with
the small dealers and fishermen. The
passage of the bill was so easy in the
house that its sponsor already- sees victoo for bl* maaror. to Ute roast,. but
tbe tact that the upper
boon roloaa do
- not look upon the matter with such
good grace as their brothers on theother side of the capital has crept out, with
the result that a fight Is looked for In
tne senate. Th* house, it seems, has a
habit of letting bills slide through, in
-order to save time and energy, and al
lowing the work of weedingout the good
from the bad to devolve upon the sen
ators. while the upper branch, alive to
Its responsibilities, Is careful to pick
■every natter to pieces which comes up
for consideration. There is but little
doubt that the Bland bill Is a drastic
•one, but as many declare, its clauses
may block a great evil In Michigan, how•ever, followers of legislative doings may
rmt assured thai the senate will give
the bill an ample overhauling before al
lowing It to go on record.

Still Legislution Drags.
And still the grind goes on. Week
after week the legislators take up their
duties Monday night after the over-Sunday vacation, and at the end of the week
the same old tale—of adjournment so far
off that neither the solons nor the great
audience, consisting of tbe people of the
state of Michigan, can see it—continues
to be the leading feature of the session.
The primary bill still remains as the
$reat wa.ll that must be surmounted be
fore the legislators can think of perma
nently returning home to wife and lit
tle ones. Conservative members put
the date at June 1 for adjournment, while
others actually express the conviction
that all work may be gotten out of tbe
date for the legislators to adjourn, if
certain concessions are granted. If the
solons get right down to work, paas the
primary measure in the senate and cast
off all remaining bilU or reaolutlona
without delay their May tenth ambitions
may be realized, but tbe chances of suc
cess for soch a plan are slim Indeed. The
dawn of every day brings news bills and
at present the total in the house amounts
to nearly 750, while the senate can boast
of less than one-half that number,
bringing the grand total to over 1,000,
Most of the measures are local in nature,

Home Rule for Detroit
Enthusiastic Detroit citizens are
causing the Wayne delegation here ail
sorts of trouble by their peculiar Ideas
of legislation, and the fact that some
thing must be done to stay the tide
of bills, which the Detroiters take
pleasure in framing and shipping to
this city, has thoroughly impressed It
self on the solons of both branches
who hall from Wayne. In order that
thia bad feature of the session may
be done sway with, legiaiators from
I Wayne in order to protect themselves
for Detroit, in order that all legisla
tion for tne metropolis may be done
there. The Detroit council has a legis
lative committee, which makes life a
burden for the delegation, and with a
view of ridding themselves of this
body, support will be given to a home
rule bill. As to the legislative commit-

Chicago, April 29. — An injunction,
■weeping and direct in its nature, was
granted Friday by Judge Kohlsaat, of
the United States circuit court, against
all labor unions and others, restraining
them from Interfering in any way with
the operations of the Employers’ Team
ing company. This action places the
employers under the protection of the
federal government. One hundred de
fendants are specifically named in the
writ, including the teamsters’ joint
council. The order is a temporary one,
rutukoable May 10, when the labor peo
ple will be called upon to show why it
should not be made permanent The fu
ture course of the strike may hinge
largely on this Injunction. Violation of
the injunction is punishable by fine or
Imprisonment or both, at the discretion
of the court It is expected that promi
nent leaders will be arrested if they per
sist in their boycott policy, just as Debs
was arrested and imprisoned in the rail
road strike of 1894.
The impending general strike of the
lumber, hay and grain teamsters was
one of the largest elements in Friday's
developments. There are 2,000 lumber
drivers. Two hundred of them are out
already and the other 1,800 have been
ordered to strike.
Strike Spreads.
Chicago, May 1.—The strike extended
its tentacles Saturday, violence in more
pronounced form prevailed in the
streets of the city, and employers and
union men through their boards of
strategy planned relentless campaigns,
while civic officials and committees rep
resenting the general public made tenta
tive moves looking to the restoration of
peace.
About 1,000 recruits joined the ranks
of the striking drivers during Saturday,
but contemplated action by large busi
ness Interests promise to force two or
three times that number out of work.
The spread of the strike further affected
the coal business, penetrated to the
wholesale grocery houses, placed a par
tial embargo on the transfer of passen
gers and baggage to and from railroad
stations, and took in hundreds of bundle
boys In the department stores. Whois
sale grocers, against some of whom the
strike ban already has been put In opera
tion, have decided upon a lockout

Having purchased the stock of A. G. Gulden we find a number of
odds and ends in all departments. Beginning Friday morning we will
hold a Stock-Reduction Sale for the explicit purpose of disposing of
all odds and ends, so we may clear our decks for the new goods just
purchased. What the goods cost us will be our least consideration,
and our sole attention will be given to prices that will surely sell
them. As some of the lots are small we wish to suggest that you

NEW PBIMABY BILL
MICHIGAN SENATE COMMITTEE
REPORTS MEASURE OUT.
PLAN END OF THE SESSION
Many Solons Believe That Adjourn
ment Will Come About May 20
—Must Dispose of Reform
Question First.
(Special Correspcnaence.)
Lansing. Mich., May 8.—Tbe senate
committee on elections has reported
out an entirely new primary election
bill, and now it to up Lo the upper
house colons to set a good example
for their comrades in the bouse by
quickly and decisively disposing of the
measure in some manner. The new
bill is in a few respects like the IvoryDouble-Dtckineon. but the features
which In that measure were consid
ered objectionable by some of the
aolons have been routed out
Provisions of Measure.
The measure provides for direct nom
ination for all offices, including govern
or and lieutenant governor, and makes
choice. If a majority is not obtained
by any candidate, the nomination, of
course goes to a convention for a deci
son. Right in the last mentioned clause
is where the snag, if there is any. exists.
The bill, as it stands, viewed in a genera!
way. is looked upon with favor by all.
but it is possible that a strenuous con
test may result because of the majority
clause.
Brigh Outlook for Bill.
At present, however, everything is
the brightest for the bill, its success in
the senate is a certainty, and its rati
fication by the house, it would seem,
can be effected in lews time than in the
upper body, for the reason that the sen
ators themselves concocted the meas
ure. As a rule, all the "big" adminis
tration men are going on record in fa
vor of thsgbill. mainly for the reason
that the people of the state have been
raising a howl for some action on tbe
primary question for years '
Warner Will 8igp IL
Gov. Warner, leader of them *11. de-
governor and lieutenant governor, but
measure, of course within reasonable
bounds, fortifies his position, when he
Senator Brown was the staunchest sup
porter of the republican platform. He
violestiy opposed anything which would
for an instant bring the natrlottom of
the soloes into question, but his efforts
for a measure which left the governor
and lieutenant governor out were over
ruled. and the bill, differing somewhat
reported out.
Adjournment Gossip.
Outside of the primary bill the next
subject of importance is adjournment,
and it is toward this end that the
oolons in general and Speaker Master
In particular are bending their efforts.
To, show that tbe house leader Is as
is his remonstrance when a bouse

bill, which apparently had the O. K.
of the governor's office, but they were
induced to hold it back upon the as
sumption that the Lovell bill needed
amending, and since then nothing haa
been done. One member who wants
the commission reduced said: “Unlesa
something Is done very soon I shall
move to have the bill taken away from
the committee. There la no question
about the sentiment of tbe house. The
majority wants the commission re
duced and wants its powers cut down.
If we cannot accomplish anything on
that line, it is possible that a bill win'
be Introduced to do away with the
commission entirely.”
Baird Bill Reported Cut
Tba Baird anti-cigarette bill, nearly
as stringent as the Sheldon-Ming
measure killed recently, has been re
ported out by senate committee on
judiciary. It is believed by the spon
sors of tbe bill that with some of the
drastic clauses eliminated from the
first measure the Baird till will be re
ceived favorably by the members.
Another Anti-Trust Bill.
A bill which, if passed by the legis
lature and upheld by the courts, would
prove a most effective anti-trust law,
was introduced by Representative
Waters, of Washtenaw. The bill pro
hibits absolutely all combinations of
persons or corporations for regulating,
fixing or maintaining the prices of
manuiactureo
manufactured commoaiues,
commodities, or anytDi-.
anything
else upon which there is placed a

The Clothcraft designer has Snade style

excel in style ?
The cutting must be quick and accurate—
that's all. On some goods the Clothcrafters
use an electric machine with rapidly revolv

cloth at once. That is one of the ways in
which Clothcraft Clothes are made possible at

There are no other clothes ** good as

A potent reason for this is the fact that all

direct road to economy and good work.
Also it makes possible the use of

The two armies were about equal in

regulars were as high as those of the
British army, but the average of the
French forces was sadly diminished
by the fact that the larger portion of
their army was made up of Canadian
militia. Thebe' hardy peasants were

his air brakes, and the train, an un

The marriage of D. J. Hopkins and
Miss Lena Hecox Monday, was a
complete surprise to their many friends
In Nashville, and while the event was
expected, the suddenness of It was not
looked for.
Miss Hecox went to
Battle Creek and Kalamazoo several
days ago to visit with friends and
while at the latter place visiting with
Mr. and Mrs. Ervin Lyon, the latter
suggested that it would be a capital
idea to have the wedding take place at
her house, as long as it was so soon
to occur anyway. It took but little
persuasion to win Miss Hecox to the
fdan, who replied that she was willing
f Dave was. Dave was communi
cated with over the ’phone Saturday
and let into the plan, and was so tak
en up with the idea that had no other
means of reaching the side of his in
tended been possible, be would have
walked. He left here Saturday even
ing and went to Battle Creek, where
the interurban railway carried him
to Kalamazoo.’
The ceremony was performed by
Rev. W. M. Buffer, formerly of Hast
ings, at the pleasant home of Mr. and
Mrs. Lyon on Wheaton a venae, Mon
day noon, and the happy connle left
that afternoon for Hastings, where the
groom’s parents and other relatives
reside A sister of Mr. Hopkins was
made aware of the event and after she
recovered from the shock it was plan
ned to have a sort of family reunion,
and during this happy event, when the
conversation was lagging, Dave an
nounced that he had purchased a
book which he wished them to see.
The book wm the marriage certifi
cate and * ‘the cal was out'*.
They came on home Tuesday morn
ing and have begun house-keeping in
their roomsxjver H. G. Hale's, which
they bad already furnished and are
now receiving the congratulations of
their many friends.
The groom is the eon of Mr. and
Mrs. A. D. Hopkins, and has lived in
Naehville a couple of years, being at
present’ clerk al O. G. Monroe’s Star
clothing house.
The bride is one of Nashville's most
popular young ladies, the daughter of
warren Hecox. It is the wish-of their
many friends that their married life
will have as smooth sailing as their
marriage was sudden.
DEATH OF MRS. DAN KtCKHAN.
The friends and relatives of Mrs.
Dan Hickman were shocked and
pained to learn of her sudden death
which occured at her late home
at Charlotte Saturday morning. She
was stricken about four weeks ago
with appendicitis and gradually grew
worse until last week, when the attend
ing physician decided that an opwrallo*. would be necMsary to save her
life. This was accordingly carried
out Friday and was apparently suc
cessful, as she rallied nioely from the
operation. Her condition, however,
soon turned for the worse and she
failed rapidly until death relieved her
suffering.
M. E. church, Rev. G. W. Tulhlll
officiating. Interment was made in
Lakeview cemetery.
Mr. and Mrs. Hickman were former
residents of this village and had lived
at Charlotte about four years. She
leaves a father and mother, Mr. and
Mrs. Robert Gunn of Vermontville,
husband, two daughters, brothers, sis
ters and other relatives and friends to
mourn her death. The day qbe was
laid to rest was the 44th anniversary
of her birth.
The funeral was largely attended
and the floral offerings were beautiful,
a pillow presented by her sisters was
especially pretty.
. Those from out of town who were
present were Mr. and Mrs. Robert
Gunn, Will Gunn, Clayton Gunn and
wife and son Clarence of Vermontville,
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Hickman and daughtefThelma of Eaton Rapids, Mrs.
Emma Bussell and daughter Winona,
Hattie Amos and daughter Gladys of
Owosso, Mrs. Carrie Ferguson of
Detroit, Mr. and Mrs.
Lewis Sim
onds of Bellevue, Mr. and Mrs. Levi
Hickman and daughter Iva of Maple
Grove, Mesdames Heller and Kellogg
of Lansing, Eunice Bilderbeck of
Vermontville and about fifteen L. O.
T. M. M. ladies from Charlotte.

MAY HAVE BEEN MURDER.
Bloody
Clothes Found in
South of Nashville.
Woods
The finding of wearing apparel sat
urated with blood, in a woods south
of this village, has thrown the inhabi
tants of the Austin school district
into a state of great excitement.
Thomas Telly, having a small farm
about seven miles south of this vil
lage, found two white shirts, one
undershirt, two coats and two vests in
a secluded spot In his woods last Fri
day morning, which were apparently
saturated with blood. He took the
garments home, notified the neighbors
and the news spread rapidly, all sorts
of stories gaining circulation. Lean
der Reams, supervisor of Assyria
township, and who lives near Telly’s,
at once sent one of the garments to
Ann Arbor for analysis of the blood
with which it was saturated.
The garments are fairly good and
from their appearance had not been
cast off but a short time, the grass
under them not being bleached in the
least, and it is a mystery how they
came there.
The place where they
were found is in the most God-forsak
en country in Barry county, which
makes the circumstances more awe
inspiring and visions of a great trag
edy run through the minds of the in
habitants of that section, and all
kinds of rumors have been afloat, one
connecting the affair with the finding
of the body of a man lying near the
railroad track at Ceresco last week.
The theory has been advanced that
the man was murdered and the mur
ders knowing of this secluded spot,
came there to dispose of their bloody
clothes, thinking they would be safe
from human interruption and that the
garments would lay there and rot be
fore human foot would ever tread over
the lonely patch of woods. The woods
have been searched, but do other
trace of any one else having been
there recently has been fouud and this
theory seems plausible.
There is no doubt but some one can
tell why the clothes were there, and if
the Information is not forthcoming the
opinion that a terrible crime has been
committed will ever linger in the
minds of the people of that vicinity.
The officers have been notified but
nothing will be done until it is found
what sort of "gore” the garments are
saturated with, Meanwhile the case
offers great opportunities for amateur
detectives and a chance to deyelope a
full-fledged Sherlock Holmes.

the fowls to have all the water they de

water to about 100 degrees. It will take
some time for the temperature of this
to fall to 32 degrees. This given twice

What Is Accomplished by American
Workmen with the Aid of
Machinery.
M. Favre-Peret, who investigated this
Industry* In the New England states
some years ago, stated that the average
production of 40.000 workmen In Switz
erland was 40 watches each per annum,
while in America the average was 150
flue watches for each man employed,
says the Annals of the American Acad
emy.
By the aid of special machines In
these watch ftetories one man can
make 1.200 fine screws per day. some
of which are so small that more than
100,000 are required to weigh a pound.
One of the finest pieces made is a •’pal
let-arbor’’ or pivotal bolt, which for
a small-sized watch has a thread of 260
to the inch, weighs 1-130,000 of a
pound, undergoes 25 operations and
costs but 2*4 cents. Measurements are
gauged to 1-25,000 of an inch.
The balance wheel, after being ma
chined, weighs only seven grains and
when fltte^ with 16 gold screws weighs
7.2 grains: there are 80 separate opera

Chicago, May
22.—Complications
suddenly have arisen In the tearasters'
■trike situation that threaten tbe over
throw of all peace negotiations and the
precipitation of a general strike. The
Teamsters’ Joint Council, at an hour
when the calling off of the strike was
looked for, rejected the proposition
for a settlement agreed to by the em
ployers and the union leaders, and
voted to continue the struggle. The re
fusal by the express companies to re
employ any of their old drivers was
the cause of the. joint council’s action.
The arbitration that the Chicago team
owners requested several days ago, xegardlng the right of teamsters to re
fuse to make deliveries to strike-bound
firms, also was turned down In the re
newed manifestation of the war spirit.
Strike May Spread.
The situation, therefore, has been
pul back exactly where it was before
peace negotiations were begun last
week, following the arrival of Presi
dent Compare of the American Federa
tion of Labor. This situation, however,
pronilset to become aggravated when
lumber and hay and grain interests at
tempt to deliver their products to boy
cotted houses. The Inevitable result,
nnleas other means of bringing about
a settlement are found, will be the
adding of thousands more to the ranks
of striking and locked-out teamsters.
With a spread of the strike may
come troop? to cope with the law and
end of the situation. This is regarded
as a certainty, and Sheriff Barrett, who
had been awaiting the outcome of the
joint council meeting at the Sherman
House, a few doors away, announced
his determination of taking immediate
action.
Terms Voted Down.
The terras of the Chicago Employ
ers' association, formulated at a con
ference in Levy Mayer's office after a
series of peace negotiations through
48 hours, and which were voted down
by the joint council, were:
1. Tbe unions to fix a date for the
end of the strike.
2. The employers to announce the
evening before bow many men would
be reinstated the following morning.
3. Policemen, special guards, detec
tives and private operatives to be re
moved from the barns and wagonc
within 30 minutes- after strike Is set
tled.
4. Employers to take back employes
without discrimination.
5. Wages, hours and working condi
tions to remain unchanged.
6. No agreements to be signed on
either side.
7. Agreements to apply to depart
ment stores, furniture dealers, coal
firms and all other strike-bound firms
except railway express companies.
Governor Pledges Troops.
Chicago, May
23.—Gov.
Deneen
has given his pledge to Mayor Dunne
that he would fill the streets of Chi
cago with troops within two hours of
the receipt of an official request either
from the mayor or Sheriff Barrett.
This response was made over the long
distance telephone in response to an
inquiry from Mayor Dunne. The may
or expressed to the governor his fear
that it would be found necessary to
ask for troops U restore and preserve
peace in this city. The mayor realized
that the police departarant had reached
the limit of its ability to cope with the
lawless bands of rioters that are hour
ly causing terrific disturbances all over
the city, and had to acknowledge that
with the threatened spreading of the
war the police arm of the municipal
government would be practically par
alysed.
Strike Spreads.
One hundred and fifty lumber driv
ers struck Monday, marking the be
ginning of the expansion of lhe strike.
Following the failure of the peace
negotiations, the complete tie-up of
union teaming in Chicago is threat
ened, the building material drivers be
ing the first to be affected. With this
tie-up will come a complete cessation
of building throughout the city.

the tool shown in the cut, says Robert
H. Smith, In Gleanings in Bee Culture.
It Is about eight Inches long over all,
and consists of two parts, a wooden
handle and a magnetizMl .steel shank
with a smooth flatteniCT end to which
the head of tbe tack adheres. I have
used this tool the past season, and Ithas
proved itself .to be the very thing want
ed, doing its work silently and pound
ing no Huge r><
Besides being very useful for nailing
down no-drlp sticks It is the best thing
that I have found yet for putting foun
dation in frames, for with It the tight
ening strip can be forced down, and
small nails thrust Into it without tear
ing and breaking the foundation as one
frequently does with a hammer.
In use, the tool Is grasped In the right
hand by the handle (something like a
screwdriver), and the end tbe shank is
brought Id contact with one of the tacks,
which should previously be scattered
about on top of the bench; then with
the left hand hold the point of the In
strument steady to prevent the tack
from toppling over, and thrust down
with the right, which firmly seats the
tack In the wood.
The tacks should be scattered enough
so that not more than one will be at
tracted to the magnet at- a time, and
the tool held firm and true, with both
hands, when pressing In a tack, to pre
vent it from toppling over.
I claim for It the following advan-
1. It Id noiseless. One enn work in
the kitchen, or anywhere for that mat
ter. with no annoyance to other peo
ple.
2. It will do the work quicker, pick
ing up the tack, which la always a diffi
cult Job with the small nails used for
this purpose, and (hunting It home with
practically one motion, while with the
hammer the tack has to be picked up,
started, and then pounded in.
3. It cannot pound your fingers, they
4. It will last indefinitely, there being
no hammering done with it to destroy
its magnetism.

M188 ANN MARIA PARKER, of
M Parsbury, kept a cat—a gray
Thomas cat, with white feet and face,
and. as Miss Parker was wont to ob
serve, “a very amiable expression of
countenance."
Miss Parker was a single Isdy of
about 40—plump, fair and generally at
tractive, and in all probability she
would have been somebody’s wife long
before if there had been anybody of
the male persuasion in the vicinity
who had not already a wife.
But Parksbury had only three eligi
ble men within Its precincts. Peter
Hooper, who had only one eye. and
was doubled up like a Jackknife with
the rheumatism, stood first on the list.
Peter was a widower, and the first
Mrs. Hooper had never done anything
in all her life that pleased him until
the day she bade him farewell and en
joined It upon him to put a silver plate
on her coffin, and be sure and have a
notice of her death in the Parksbury
Chronicle, staling that she was a good
wife, and was much lamented by all
her heart-broken friends, and had been
an advance-pay Ing 'subscriber to the
Chronicle for more than 30 years.
Peter’s faith in woman was not very
deep, and there seemed little likeli
hood that there would ever be a sec
ond Mrs. Hooper.
The second eligible man was Thomas
Dunbar, and Thomas stuttered bo bad
ly that he had never been able to pro
pose to any lady. He had made sev
eral attempts to do so. but had never
succeeded in getting through with the
job in one day. and the next day his
courage would be gone, and so be had
never been made happy.
Lastly, there was Jethro Turner, but
Jethro had a mother and seven sisters
to support, so there was not much

Miss Parker nad , always lived in
Parksbury. so you Will understand that
her chances for committing matri
mony had been exceedingly small.
She lived alone with her cat. whose
baptismal name was Dick, and was
very strongly attached to the animal,
which was not strange, seeeing he was
all the family she had.
One luckless day Dick failed to put
in an appearance at dinner time. Miss
Parker was strongly exercised over hls
retnissness. bnt consoled herself with
the thought that there were rats la
her neighbor Thompson's barn, and
probably Dtek was displaying a little
strategy tn capturing one of them for
a lunch. But when night came, and
Dick was still absent, her anxiety in
creased. and she could not knit on the
gray stocking she was doing for the
full of water.
Morning dawned, and Dick came not.
Miss Parker put on her bonnet and
jacket, and went round to all the

then she went to all tbe bouses and

“Don't drop the bag!" cried Min
Parker; "only hold on a minute longer,
and 1*11 save yob both!"
The woman was a heroine in her
small way. She bad got a hooked
stick, and, creeping out on the body of
the tree, she reached down the hook,
and inserted it in tbe mouth of the
bag. Very gently and carefully Dick,
and the bag, and the ballast It con
tained were transported to terra firma;
but, alas! Miss Parker's foot slipped,
through some mismanagement, and
she would have gone into the water
had she not caught by the old gentle
man’s very atotky legs and held on.
"Gracious Peter!" cried the luckless
old man, "them straps and buckles’ll
bust up now tor sartln! Let go my
legs, old woman! You’re pulling my
j’ints clean apart!”
But Miss Parker kept her hold, and
her companion waxed angry and

Michigan has experienced one of the
worst storms of its history this week,
and besides resulting in many deaths,
has destroyed a vast amount of pro
perty. The first section of tbe storm
appeared Tuesday morning in tbe
eastern part of the state, in Tuscola
and Sanilac counties,
where it
wrought more havoc than elsewhere.
Appalling in the extreme is the trail
of death and destruction in those
counties. Tbe grim list of known
dead now numbers five, while six are
fatally, and at least thirty more or
less seriously injured.
The property losses reach high into
tbe thousands. Splendid bouses and
vast
barns are now piles o

household furniture and agricultural
implements scattered over the land
scape.
The dead are: Daniel Philpot,
Beatrice Smith, Elsie Appleman and
two children of Joseph Pentfiela.
From here the storm broke and
came west, striking this section late
in the afternoon. One storm formed
in tbe southwest and passed over tbe
village, going in a northwesterly di
rection. About the time it was at its
height, another formed in the south
and went around to the west of us,
the two storms converging just went
of town and turning back squarely
into tbe village. About this time
there was great scrambling to close
windows and doors and many of tbe
more timid went into cellars. The
storm came the nearest to being the
genuine simon pure ringed-tai led Kan
sas variety that Nashville has ever
entertained, and we believe we speak
tbe sentiment of all when we say that
it was sufficient to satisfy the most ex
citement-loving person in town. It
swooped down with all its inky black
ness with such suddenness that had
it been of a more serious disposition,
it would have caught the entire popul
ation unawares. Hail stones as large
as ben’s eggs began to decend, driving
everything to cover. In a few minutes
the rain began to fall in torrents and
if it ever rained it did then for about
twenty minutes, however it soon be

much better. Dr. Arnoux, who had
called to see him In the morning, had
reprehended him severely for his ex
cursion of the day before. Although
the surgeon had been filled with gen
erous admiration at the devotion and
courage Grafton had exhibited ta be
half of de Vltre in the chateau, he
had strictly forbidden him to rise
again from the bed for some time at
least. With the remembrance of his
unfortunate collapse In the chateau
at the trial of de Vltre, the English
man was inclined to heed his advice.
Indeed, he could do no less, since his
uniform, as a further preventive, had
been taken away by Jean-Renaud un
der the orders of Mademoiselle ds Ro
han.
The tedium of the day had been re
lieved by two short visits from the
mistress of the household. Had she
consulted her inclination only, she
would not have left him for a mo
ment. but she did not dare trust her
self long in his presence. Yet bare
hospitality, the consideration due a
sick man whom fate had thrown upon
her bands, constrained her at least to
inquire as to his health and to super
vise in person the meager arrange
ments which the straitened circum
stances necessitated by the rigorous
siege of Quebec permitted her to make
for his comfort.
Her visits had been brief, however,

Yet he was very dissatisfied with
the situation. There was something
about the young demoiselle which
moved him powerfully, something he
could not explain. The thought of her
betrothal to de Vltre filled him with
a certain jealous dismay—he could not
exactly tell why. It was hardly pos
sible he could be in love with her him
self, a girl he had seen but a day
since! He seemed to have known, or
to have met her before, though. How
was it? De Couedlc! And. yet----But what could be do? Nothing.
He was master of himself now—in the
full possession of his faculties, with
no excuse of weakness, wounds, or
fever, that fs—and there could be no
possible reason for so personal an ap
peal to her as he hgfl made when in
fevered confusion he had asked her
if she loved de Vltre.
During tbe day tie was attended

Jean-Renaud nor Josette, either of

had not both been kept from him by
the orders of their mistress. The con
versation between the two, therefore,
on the occasion of these two visits was
necessarily brief; confined on her part
to Inquiries as to his well-being, his
needs, and desires, and upon his part
to expression* of gratitude for her
kindness, and earnest deprecations of
the trouble be was giving her and her
household.
As for her, every time she ap
proached him she longed to declare
herself. With th® passionate aban
don of a French woman who loved lit
erally for the first time, who found
herself in the actual presence of a
long-cherished ideal, before a realiza

dreams, she would fain have thrown
herself upon his breast—into his
arms. She longed to gather him to
her heart and lavish upon him those
treasures of affection which all tne
gallantry, courage and devotion of de
Vltre could not evoke. And all this

hair; she was Indeed a rarely beautiful
woman. The performance of her ma
turity was Indeed greater than her
childhood’s promise had been. Only
a prophet might have seen the one in
the past, or a seer recognize the other
in the present
A strange concatenation of circum
stances had brought the girl to New
France.
After Grafton’s departure
from the chateau de Josselin she bad
drooped and faded. She was growing
too rapidly, thought the marquis and
those who advised him, who never
suspected the real reason for her ill
health. She actually had pined for
the young man who had left her be
hind and yet had taken her childish
heart with him. But of this, of course,
she said nothing, so the wise men con
cluded that she had studied too bard,
had teen too closely confined, and so
on. The physicians who were con
sulted. after the simple remedies of the
time had proved unavailing, finally
recommended a sea-voyago.
As it happened, the marquis had
just then been summoned to the King
to take part as a commander in one
of the campaigns of the Seven Years'
war. his experience and ability being
too valuable to allow him to be neg
lected. The old man, therefore, had
taken advantage of the departure of a
heavy French squudron. carrying gen
eral. the Marquis de Montcalm, hie
suite, and some troops, to send his
fcTand-daughter to Canada under the
charge of the general, an old friend,
who had been appointed to the supreme
command in New France. An ancient
relative of the house erf Rohan lived in
affluence and ease in Quebec, and to
her the marquis consigned the young
countess.
She had remained tn New Francs
with this estimable lady ever since her
arrival, for two reasons: One, it had
been difficult—well-nigh impossible.
Indeed, on account of the number of
English ships cruising to intercept the
traffic between Canada and France—
to get away; and the other, as the
marquis was still engaged in the French
army, she would have no place to which
to go. no place where the could have
lived so comfortably and safely If she
returned to France. The marquis was
determined that he would not throw
her into the hotbed of dissipation and
intrigue of which Louis XV. wm the
focus, in Paris or at Versailles.
Her health, much benefitted by the
voyage, was soon completely restored,
and with her great beauty, her ancient
name, her powerful grandfather, the
great estates to which she was sole

Thc poet's exclamation: "O Life! I feel
bee bounding in my veins," is a joyous
one. Persons that can rarely or never
make it, in honesty to themselves, are
among tbe most unfortunate. They do not
live, but exist; tor to live implies more
than to be. To live Is to be well and
strong—to arise feeling equal to tbe ordin
ary duties of tbe day, and to retire not
overcome by them—to feel life bounding in
tbe veins. A medicine that has made
thousands of people, men aud women, well
and strong, has accomplished a great
work, bestowing tbe richest blessings, and
that medicine is Hood's Sarsaparilla.
The weak, run-down, or debilitated, from
any cause, should not fail to take it. It
builds up tbe whole system, changes exis
tence into life, and makes life more
abounding. We are glad to say these words
in its favor to tbe readers of our columns.

Pennsylvania Flyer Makes Trip Be
tween New York and Chicago in
17 Hours, 57 Minutes.
Chicago, June 13.—On its initial run
from New York, the Pennsylvania
railroad's 18-hour "Flyer." the fastest
long-distance train In the world, ar
rived in thia city at 8:52 o’clock Mon
day morning, three minutes ahead of
schedule time. In order to accomplish
this feat, extraordinary achievements
in the way of fast running were neces
sary.
After leaving Pittsburg the
tender of the btg Atlantic type engine,
which had been attached al that city
for the run to Crestline. 0.. developed
a hot box about 20 miles east of Mans
field, O. The engineer stopped his
train and 15 minutes were lost In futile
efforts to cool the- troublesome axle.
Finally a freight engine was attached
and the train limped into Creadine.
Here the regular engine was in wait
ing and when the "Flyer" left the lat
ter place it was 2S minutes late. The
run to Fort Wayne, 131 miles away,
was made In 114H minutes, an aver
age of 66 8-10 miles an hour. When
the train pulled out of Fort Wayne
for the last lap of the long journey, it
was only nine and one-half minutes
late, WH minutes of the lost Ume hav
ing been made up. Miles were fre
quently reeled off in from 44 to 50 sec
onds. and an average speed of a mile
a minute was easily maintained over
long stretches of track.

Men who have always bad their clothes made by custom tailors of t’ e
first class are perhaps not to be blamed for forming a low estimate of ready
made garments as they once were made, but those who continue to believe
that the best “ready-mades” are inferior, are now standing in their own
light, without a proper knowledge of facts.
There is hope for the man who “wants to know.” Those who ’"know 'It

TAKE ANOTHERNAME
KRA80N8 SOME PEOPLE HAVE
FOB MAKING CHANGE.
It Is of Frequent Occurrence and Is
Countenanced by the Law—
Method of Its Accom
plishment.
“Custom has made it almost universal
for all male persons to bear the names
of their parents,” said an attache of tbs
local court the other morning, reports
the Washington Star. ”lt seems nat
ural that it should be so. Nevertheless
there is nothing in the laws of this coun
try prohibiting a man's taking another
name, and no legal penalty is attached
in his doing so. There is always, how
ever. a possibility of its being attend
ed with Inconvenience, and perhaps loss
to himself.
“Suppose, for instance. Brown as
sumes the name g>f Smith. Relatives
whose society may, peradventure, be
useful to Brown, it is a hundred to one
that the relatives discover him under the
name of Smith. So, you see, when a
man changes his name at a venture, it
may be all the worse fot him. Of
course, If he changes bls name to es
cape detection as a criminal, it may save
him from capture or it may not; if nou
then he figures in the record with an
allaa and that 4s disgrace. A man may
enter into a contract or obligation under
any name be chooses, tbe law looking
only to the identity of the person.
“There is a way, however, by which
a man may change bls name with the
sanction of the law. and that is the only
safe way. But the law requires him
to assign some reason for tbe change.
Men have assigned various reasons for
wishing to change their names. Some
times a man wishes to drop his right
name because it is of foreipi origin and
difficult for an American tongue to pro
nounce. This may injure him in his
'••jsiness, as there is such a thing as
prejudice even in this free and enlight
ened commonwealth. Or his name
may have in English an absurd or even
vulgar meaning and subject him to
unpleasant jokes, or it may associate
him with some ntiorfous.criminal or
be ths counterpart of some name which
history made infamous, or it may be
misspelled and consequently mlspronounced on hie entry to this country.
“Frequently inZants are left orphans
or abandoned by ths father after the
death of the mother. In that case it
is a frequent occurrence for relatives or
neighbors to take a child and adopt IL
giving it their own name. In that ones
tbe party d&Mring to adopt must apply
by a written petition ta the court of
the place in which be lives asking leave
to adopt the child and change its name
to that of the petitioner. The order alhowiag the adoption and the change of
rame must be filed with the court, so
that the pareatage of the child may be
MheagnsnUy established if necessary.
“A citizen of the district of full age
may change his name by petition in
the same way. or. if he is under age,
bis guardian or his nearest friend may
address the petition to the court. Whc^
• name must be served on the father, or
if he is dead and cannot be found, then
on the mother,.or If she Is dead, then
on a guardian, or if both parents are out
of the district and there is no guardian,
the court may dispense with the motion
or require notice of it be served ou any
body it may see flt. If In any of these
cases the court is satisfied there are no
objectionable reasons the order is per
mitted granting a change of name. The
order must be filed with the clerk and
30 days thereafter tbe new name may
be assumed. The granting of tbe notice
must within ten days thereafter be pub
lished in a newspaper designated by ths
court
“Thus the law protects the person who
for good and sufficient reasons desires to
assume a name other than bis own. The
order of tbe court being recorded, all the
rights of the Individual which maysubsequentiy accrue to him under his orig
inal name are preserved, his identity be
ing the view of the law, fully estab
lished."
’ Sad Amusements of the Briton.
A certain invalid gentleman in the
neighborhood of Liverpool has hit on a
device whereby he can amuse himself
without assistance, and can also obtain a
certain amount of intellectual exercise.
He reads Henry James' latest novels,
and keeps a bridge marker meantime, if
Mr. James has a sentence which he un
derstands he gives a mark to himself; if,
on the contrary, he meets a sentence
which beats him. he gives a mark to Hen

James is far ahead of bls admirer, but
of course, the tables may be turned when
the contest is concluded. The process is

The moment your milk
□egins to sour the butter-fat begins to
decompose and you lose at the teat,
whether we so will or not.
We know that all of the milk that
Is brought to the creamery Is not tbe
choicest, but no patron, of course,
will admit that his milk is not tbe
best.
A great deal, if not nearly all, of
the unpleasantness between the patron
and the buttermaker arises where the
buttermaker is compelled to refuse or
criticixe poor milk. We find that in
some creameries about all tbe milk
that is offered is taken, regardless of
the fact whether the same Is good or
bad. Generally, under these circum
stances, the buttermaker is considered
a good fellow, but bis goodness leads
him into this error, that, by except
ing poor milk, his butter will of ne
cessity be inferior, and tbe price that
it will command on the market will
not be tbe highest. Tbe reputation
of the buttermaker for efficiency depends on the quality of tbe products
nf his creamery, and the success of
the creamery depends upon tbe price
that the product will command in tbe
markets of tbe world.
Where poor milk is received not
only those bringing such milk are
made to sustain a financial loss, but
the patrons who bring in good milk
are made to suffer for the sins of tbe
indifferent and negligent patron.
Usually the patrons are tbe first to
find fault if the butter should sell be
low the highest market price, yet it
should be realized that in most in
stances they alone are at fault in not
delivering to the factory pure, sweet
ana untainted milk.
Many of them
care little about the condition of the
milk, their chief alm being to get it
to the factory without regard to its
condition, and then they expect the
buttermaker to make a product from
such milk as will secure tbe highest
price for tbe choicest article on the
market.
One single patron of the creamery
who is untidy and dirty in the care of
his cows and the care of tbe milk can
reduce tbe grade of an entire mate of
butter consisting of several hundred
pounds.

Some farmers report that wheat has
been greatly damaged by the wet
weather; however, the per cent of
those who have discovered damage is
small, and we do not think it has suf
fered much thus far, excepting on very
low ground. Tbe state crop report
says that the'cool wet weather which
prevailed during May war mostfavorable for a good crop, but should
much more rain fall now, it would un
doubtedly injure it greatly. So far
as reported, the Hessian fly is doing
but little damage. Corn will no doubt
be a short crop in this vicinity as the
continued wet
weather
prevented
planting.

PIONEERS flEET AT HASTINGS.
Tbe annual meeting of tbe Barry
County Pioneer society was held at
Hastings Saturday.
The following
officers were re-elected:
•
President—D. R. Cook.
Secretary—Miss Rose Goodyear.
Historian—Judge Clement Smith.
Tbe president, D. R. Cook, gave an
address. Judge Clement Smith gave
a history of the country as historian
and reported during tbe last year the
death of 84 pioneers. Daniel Birdsall
read a paper on "The History of
Hastings Township.”
Then came five-minute speeches, in
which many incidents of the early
davs were related. Tbe meeting was
quite largely attended.
Last Friday evening three of our
old resident physicians and a few of
our business men, all of whom have
been considered highly respectable by
all, were arraigned before Justice
Bennett for doing “something they
ought nou”
By promising better
conduct in the future and by paying
a fee of *1.50 each they are out on
parole. One of the physicians “would
not lie” hence he wears a button hole

of “truth."

behavior may go pretty hard with
them.

HUNT CATERPILLARS.
Sow I* the Time to Rid the Orchard
I wish to call the attention of read
ers of the Farmers' Review, says an
Illinois fanner, to tbe necessity of
hunting caterpillar eggs now. This
should be doae in every orchard where
the insects were present last season.
I have found that it is an easy matter
to discover the eggs when the trees
are bare. They form rings competely
round the smaller branches. A light
boy can climb up and with bls knife
cut the rings which can then be easily
detached from the wood. We have
followed this practice for many years
following attacks of the caterpillar.
Every ring of eggs found and cut off
means the elimination of a colony of
caterpillars this coming season. It is
far easier to do this than to hunt the
tents of the grown caterpillars and
have to destroy the tolony by means
of fire. Besides, by destroying the eggs
do living creature is made to suffer,
while burning the insects always
seems to me cruel, though It has to be
done when other means of preventing
their ravages are not at hand.
THZ ORCHARD 3LND GARDEN
wrong in tbe effort* by follow
ing the advice of theorists, of men
who make of horticulture a pasUmc.
These men "break Into our papers
with wonderful theories and startling
results of so-called careful experi
ments, ail of which are valueless and
misleading." In this connection the
student of horticulture who is wise is
advised to look for tbe credentials of
a writer on this subject, just as he
would look first, before reading, at
the author's name on the title page
of a book, and form bis judgment and
base his credence on what he knew or
could find out about this author.
In this article of protest, says the
Prairie Farmer, the author says that
"theri is perhapas no other business,
unless it is the practice of medicine,
in which there Is so much room for.
rank guessing." Yet it is every day
more manifest that horticulture Is a
business and one that can be managed
with aa great precision, certainty and
success as any other. There are now
a very large number of men In tbe
country who make a success of It,
that is. a financial success in this
business of fruit growing.
Until recently horticulture as a pro
fession has been looked upon with
some contemept by farmers whose la
bors are of a more back-breaking and
hand-hardening sort Though thou
sands of farmers have raised a little
fruit as a side issue, yet their care of
fruit tree and plant has usually been
mostly of a haphazard sort They
have seemed to conaidei fruit as an ac
cidental product of nature's bounty,
not as something produced and per
fected by man's care and attention.
But horticulture is coming to be one
of the greatest Industries in some of
our states, and as such has attracted
and is attracting many who aspire to
success as fruit growers. Some of
these have already tried and failed,
partly because they have not followed
reliable guides. Of course, too, in some
cases they have not patiently awaited
results after doing what wise guides
directed. The writer mentioned thinks
that there ia a great field open to the
horticulturist, and anyone who reads
the statistics showing the Increased
yearly consumption of fruit in our
country must see that this is so. But,
he avers, this business is one that, like
any other, must be mastered m all its
intricacies if success Is to be won. "If
a man masters his business he must
study the laws of nature as governing
soil conditions,, effect of atmospheric
changes, plant‘life. Insect life, proc
esses of growth aud ripening, fertiliza
tion both of bloom and soil, and when
he has covered all these fields of
knowledge he Is just where the mer
chant la when he starts Id—he has
still all the problems of market which
the merchant has. He must know
what to produce and where and how
to dispose of his production.”
The tact seems to be that If success
is to be won in horticulture a man
must take it up seriously. He must
not be led away by any sentiment he
has for nature, and he must not be
satisfied with anything less than prac
tical results. The fascinations of fruit
growing are real, but they are likely
to receive most attention from those
who pay least attention to the sober

point gained, The war. he believed,
would presently be over. That was
another point in hia favor. If she
loved him—If she loved him! Who
could doubt U after last night? But
did she love him enough to brave the
auger and defy the opposition of her
grandfather? Did she love him enough
to marry him in dpspite of country,
nationality,
public
opinion?
He
thought so.
She bad great pride of race, and
from the French point of view she
would be condescending ineffably in
marrying a mere commoner. For the
matter of that, he thought, in his lov
ing humility, that no man was fit to
possess this priceless jewel of woman
hood. He placed her upon a level so
high that she would have been com
pelled to condescend to marry even a
king, much less a simple American
gentleman. Marriage with him meant
for her the renunciation of title, rank,
station, possessions, country, family,
friends, traditions—he piled up the
catalogue of sacrifices Involved, in
gloomy,
ever-deepening
humility.
Still, other women had done such
things; these were not insuperable
obstacles.
The last difficulty was the greatest.
There was de Vitre—a stumbling
block. indeed. No man could have
done more for another than he had
done for the young Frenchman. He
bad twice saved his life, he had es
tablished his honor, and. by a singu
larly ironic trick of fate, he feared he
had be?n the means of bestowing upon
him the band of the woman they both
loved.
His own sense of the obligation he
had conferred
upon
that young
Frenchman lay heavily upon his soul.
Ho could not demand from him freely
or even take from him by force what
he would have wrested cheerfully from
another. A benefit conferred, however
not believe so.
These were torturing questions all.
Evening found him still thinking of
them and thinking alone. His wants
had been attended to by Josette or
to him. His anxious inquiries for the
countess had been met by the state
ment that she was 111 and eould not
come to see him—a declaration which
added alarm to bis longing and disap
pointment. His progress toward re
covery had been rapid, but on the sec
ond day of her continued absence from
his room he nearly fretted himself in
to a fever. He found that be could be
more calm and cool In theory than In
practice. Dr. Arnoux looked very
grave when he paid his afternoon visit
that day. and. Ignorant of the real sit

mademoiselle.

too much already, possibly; yet. when
she heard of the threatened danger
with her usual impetuosity she threw
prudence to the winds, broke her
promise to herself and fled to ths

the stair, and when she entered he
faced bar from ths pillow with such a
smile of hope aad joy as completely

exists at all it can not be exercised
after the tenant's term baa expired. If
exercised, It must be during his term
or immediately al its close. Once tbe
tenant's estate is ended he is in the

time for removal may be extended.

the term of his lease without the con

his term expires, remove the articles.

time wben he is rightfully in posses

The main difficulty arising out of
tbe subject is that of determining what
is removable and whai is not. For

Official announcement of the selec

p. m. Thureday. It was In typewrit
ten form, and read as follows:
"Wben the two governments were
unable to agree upon either Chefoo or
Paris, the president suggested The
Hague, but both governments have
now requested that Washlagton txt
chosen as the place of meeting, and the
president bas accordingly formally no
tified both governments that Washing
ton will be so selected."
This statement was supplemented
shortly afterward by a semi-official an
nouncement that “after meeting and
organizing tbe plenipotentiaries of tbe
two governments. If K should be found
to be uncomfortably hot In Washing

summer resort In the north and there

of August, and perhaps not until a lat

little later, before tbe arrangements
for the meeting of the plenipotentiaries
finally are completed. Both Russia
and Japan are moving with the utmost
deliberation, for the game of diplomacy
now being played is of even greater
importance to each government than
are the movements of the armies on
the battlefield. After tbe completion
of the preliminary arrangements, the
plenipotentiaries must proceed to
Washington, and it will require at
least a month for the negotiators of
the two governments, with their re

riageable young women proceeded a
few months ago to organize a matri
monial club of 60 members. Once duly
constituted, the queetion remained as to
the best means to attract desirable suit
ors. After much discussion the wouldbe matrons of Ecausslnes came to the
conclusion that in a land of legendary
good living like Belgium a banquet
would be the most likely way of ap
pealing to the male youth of the dis
trict
Invitations were, therefore, promptly
Issued by the president to the girls*
club to 60 eligible young men to an
open-air feast in the gardens of ths
club bouse.
Shortly before four o'clock in the
afternoon of \ the appointed day the
bachelors began to arrive, some In au
tomobiles. others in carriages and oth
ers on blcyijssr By four, the hour fixed
for the feast. 60 bachelors had assem
bled. Whereupon the club president,
with no show of embarrassment, welcorned the “eligibles” with a short but
humorous speech.
The .president then set the feast go
ing by selecting a partner from among
the bachelors and conducting him to
one of the ten tables prepared for the
"spread.” Her example was Immediate
ly followed by all the members of the
club ud In a few minutes the 60 Ju
liets had their Romeos beside them.
Perfect decorim prevailed through
out the unique feast, notwithstanding
the absence of chaperons to reprove
anything in the shape of sidelong looks
of love. The success of the bachelor
girls’ venture, however, may be judged
by the fact that 14 weddings resulted
from the banquet.
An open-air ball brought the festivi
ties to a close, this dance being par
ticularly intended to give bashful suit
ors full opportunity to choose their
life partners. As a matter of fact, it
seems that most of the proposing did
take place at this ball, according to
confidential Information on the subject,
conveyed by the club president
Although the prime mover in organ
izing the club, the president did not
find her "better hair’ at this year’s
banquet the success of the Ecausslnes
bachelor girls’ venture has proved such
however, that the club has now been
organized on a permanent basis, the
14 departing members-being duly re
placed by new recruits. Hereafter,
consequently, the Ecausslnes banquet
will become an annual affair.
The reputation ot the club has now
become widespread and since the hold

an honest, conscientious course. Such
course, we are prepared to say. from
what we have seen and noted, they

away. "Don't stand there chessy-catting at me! I’ve got nothing for you. 1

The Disagreeable Woman deliberately
piled a lot ot her gear on the seat op

doing this when a sad-faced little wom

peared at the seal that had been Ut
tered up by the Disagreeable Woman,
conveyed by the car porter.
"Heah's yo’ Best, lady,” said the
porter to the sad-faced little woman.
"Lady,” addreeslng the Disagreeable
Woman. “Ah’ll have t* tek yo' things
off'n this seat"
“Who said you would?" snapped the
Disagreeable Woman. "You wait till
you're told to touch my things!"
"But de seat belongs t’ dis beah lady
an-’ de 11’1 girl,'’ said the porter.
"Huh! Can't you put them somewhere

Woman.
“No'm. Eveby place Is dun taken."
replied the porter. "Yo’ all hasn't

to carefully remove the Disagreeable
Woman's things to her own seat
"You take your hands off of my
things this minute!" snapped that
pleasant person, and she grabbed her
truck and slammed It onto the seat be
side where she sat by tbe window.
It was about 6:30 in the evening and
just growing dark when the train pulled
out of the St. Louis station.
Tbe train had barely crossed the Eads
bridge before the Disagreeable Woman
rang the bell to summon the porter.
The porter appeared on the run. looking
polite and attentive.
“I want my berth made up immediatesaid the Disagreeable Woman.
The porter looked surprised.
"But It's agi'n de rules t* mek up de

“You tell tbe conductor I want to

The porter got the conductor.
"I want my berth made up this min

the conductor.
“After a little while, lady,” said the
conductor, soothingly. “You see. the
company's rule is that—”
“Don't you talk to me about any ot
your old rules!” Interrupted the Dis
agreeable Woman.
“The company
hasn't anything to do with my time of
going to bed."
"If you are tired, lady, the porter
will fix some pillows under your bead

The conductor went away, and the
porter started to place some pillows on
the Disagreeable Woman’s seat so that
she could take it easy until the arrival
of the regular hour for making up the
berths
“Take these things away from here!”
snapped the Disagreeable Woman, “if
1 can't sleep in the berth that I paid for,
I don’t want any makeshllu."
When, an hour or so later, the berths
were made up. the sad-faced little wom

in the lower berth. The Disagreeable
Woman rang frantically for the porter.
When the ported appeared she demand

scarcely be doubted when one learns that
ot many thousands of boys and girls ■ex

two per cent bad a perfectly healthy
set- of teeth. To give an idea of the
amount of work done In a year at Darm
stadt schools it is necessary to quote
the figures of 1903. During the year
1.376 children were examined and 1.6<J1
teeth were filled, while 1.871 were ex
tracted. In Strassburg 2.666 children
were examined. 699 teeth were filled and
2.912 were extracted. Another interest
ing fact Is that 40 per cent, of all teeth
examined were bad. The method of
work Is simple: the teacher takes his
class to the dentist, who examines each
mouth quickly and marks on the card
which each child has brought with It
whether treatment is necessary. If so
tbe child must come again on a Satur
day. Russia is also Joining in the

BRIDGE HAS LONGEST SPAN
Structure Going Up at Quebec to Have
Central Beach of 1,800 Feet
There Is now under construction
across the SL Lawrence at Quebec a
cantilever bridge which when completed
will contain the longest span of any
bridge yet erected, not <*en excluding
the great cantilevers of the Forth bridge
In Scotland. The structure is of the
cantilever type, and consists of two ap
proach spans of 210 feet each, two shore
arms, each 500 feet In length, and a
great central span. 1,800 feet in length.
The total length of the bridge is 4.220
feet, and although tn extreme dimen
sions It does not compare with the
Firth of Forth bridge, which Is about
one mile in total length, it has the dis
tinction of having the longest span in
the world by 90 feet, the two cantilevers
of the Forth bridge being each 1,710 feet
In length. The total width of the floor is
80 feet, and provision is made for a
double-tracked railway, two roadways
for vehicles and two sidewalks. In a
cantilever of this magnitude the individ
ual members are necessarily of huge
proportions, the main posts, for in
stance. being 325 feet in length, and each
weighing 750 Iona.

Much lettuce In the south and under
glass in northern states is suffering
from a peculiar disease known as
“damping-off.” In the Carolinas and
Florida it is particularly bad this win
ter. One correspondent from Florida
says the Ohio Farmer reports that 25
per cent ot bls crop is affected, while
others have lost their entire planting.
Our present knowledge of methods for
treating this disease In field, cold frame
or hothouse culture is very unsatisfac
tory. The latest information, by Dr. A.
F. Woods, chief of the division of path
ology, United States department of ag
riculture, is given below.
The damping-off or rot of lettuce Is
very hard to control. We can only rec
ommend that you take all pousible pre
cautions to stop the spreading of the
disease, which is only accomplished by
tbe direct growth of the fungus through
the soil and by means of bits of the fun
gus carried on plows or oultlvators, or
by the feet of men from one part of the
field to another. Remove all diseased
plants tn the early stages of the trouble,
together with the surface soil under
neath them. These plants and the earth
around them should be carried from the
field and burned.
When lettuce is grown in cold frames
or greenhouses, the return of the dis
ease can be effectually prevented by
sterilizing the soil, which is usually ac
complished by means of live steam ta
ken from a high-pressure boiler. Ubless
some similar method can be adopted to
field culture, the only means that can be
employed to prevent a recurrence of the
disease in the next crop is to use fresh
land not previously planted to lettuce and
to take much care that the seed-bed is
free from the trouble, as well as to avoid
infection from old fields. Tbe disease
requires further study, especially with
respect to practical method* of control.
to dread these attacks any longer.
The disease is really “parturient par
ols." or apoplexy, following parturi
tion. It usually attacks the largest and
richest milkers in the whole herd. In
our extensive livestock experience in
various portions of the country we have
seen several valuable cows die In a few
hours after an attack.
.
Several farmers have asked the Rural
Advocate to give specific directions for
applying the new air treatment to a cow
that is found flat and helpless with this
disease. Our plan is as follows:
Get some straw or other convenient
material and prop up the cow in the
most comfortable position possible. It
is better if she can rest more or lees nat
urally on her breast bone.
Next milk out tbe udder and wash
both udder and teats with a five per
cent, solution of carbollzed hot water.
This will disinfect everything that is
used in connection with the operation,
including one's hands, pump, milk tube,
etc.
Carefully insert the milk tube into
one teat, having previously smeared the
end of the tube wist carbollzed vaseline.
Pump carefully and steadily until tbe
quarter is well distended. Then com
press the end of the teat with one hand
and work the gas up into the milk gland
tissue by massaging upwarp with the
other hand. Do not be afraid. The
tense condition of the udder does not
seem to injure the cow in any way, as
it causes no ft flam mation or suppression
of the milk flow. Repeat this operation
with each teat and quarter.
If the cow does not Improve, or lift
her head, within six or eight hours, re
peat this air injection. Usually one
treatment Is sufficient Do not give any
laxative or tonic, by way of the mouth,
while the cow is in this helpless condi
tion, aa there is danger of strangulatloo
from the liquid getting into the lungs.
After the cow gets up, a moderate
dose of epsom salts may be given, if
there is a tendency to canstlpaUon. A
moderat* dose for a cow weighing 1,000
pounds, or a little leu. Is about two
pounds of epsom saks, to which may be
added from one to two ounces of best
Jamaica ginger. Give gradually as one
dose, at a temperature of about 100 ds-

A colored minister asserts that John
D. Rockefeller will be responsible for
the end of the world. The minister
says that tbe Lord placed tbe oil in

earth will pet a hot box, burn off a
journal and “der y'ar.”

Nashville has probably the only
bank in the state which is open all
night. The new State Savings bank
has been without a front for the past

be placed today. It will make the
handsomest and most modern fronton

The people of the village and coun
try should remember that there is a
law against allowing obnoxious weeds
to grow on their premises or on tbe
highways. Law or no law, it is the
best for all to see to It that they are
cut or destroyed and not allowed to
Ro to seed again. Digging them out
i the only effectual way to get rid cf
them, but cutting will help some for
the time being.
Hereafter when debtors ’n Michigan
pay up their notes they will find that
they have not ‘‘three days grace,"
but must pay on the date whtn their
obligations become due. This is one
of the most interesting effects of the
negotiable instrument bill signed by
Gov. Warner ImI Friday. It covers
all kinds of papers, and is intended to
make the Michigan law conform —
tbat of most of the other states.
If the Lord furnishes tbe rain to
moisten the ground, the warmth
germinate the seed to make it grow,
and the sun and wind to ripen it, surely
a man can afford to buckle up his
trousers and pluck the weeds and tares
from the grain and loosen up the soil
and help make It grow. The Lord did
not intend man should live by sitting
around, spitting on sidewalks, whit
tling dry goods boxes, growling about
the weather and cussing everything in

The Detroit Free Press' Lansing
correspondent has ‘‘dug ud” a cadidate for congress in the fourth con
gressional district to succeed Hon. E.
L. Hamilton when the latter is elected
senator to succeed Senator Burrows
or retires for other reasons. This
candidate is Hon. C. L. Glasgow of
Barry county, president pro tem of
tbe last senate, where he made him
self popular and demonstrated his
ability as a law maker by his display
of good judgment and the exercise of
good common sense Id important legis
lative matters. As Barry county has
never had the representative in con
gress from this district, the suggestion
is fitting and should find favor in
that county at least, and Id all the
others in the district not having rep
resentative citizens with similar aspir
ations. Senator Glasgow is well fitted
for the office, and if be has ambition in
that direction may-notbecome a candi
date for lieutenant governor next year.

New Uses for Electricity.
It is a French engineer who seriously
announces his invention of a sultof elec
tric clothing, with fine wire woven In
the goods and a storage battery- By
means of this invention he affirms that
the body can be kept in u comfortable
temperature in the coldest weather.
There is no apparent reason why we
should stop with this. Little if any cur
rent would be needed to produce a light
such as persons on t he vaudeville stage
display. Thus every pedestrian at
night would become a walking lamp
post with electric force enough to shock
an inebriate who might wish to cling
to him. It would be practicable, too,
for an American inventor to connect the
current with roller skates, thus allow
ing every man to be his own trolley car.

and population in the great cities. but
few seem to appreciate the effect this
has In the rural districts, it to doubt
ful whether anything can oe done to
interfere with the great economic law.
which tends toward concentration of
numbers, wealth and power in the
great cities. But something can be
done to offset the loss which has fal
len on the rural districts, by reason of
the great change In Wealth and popu
lation, manifested within the last gen
eration.
“One of the chief cornerstones upon
which every great city is founded is.
cheap transportation; not only for long
distances over both land and water,
but also in the city Itself, by reason
of paved streets and vehicles propelled
by Inanimate power. The country
lacks this important element, cheap
transportation. The vehicle propelled
by animal power, proceeding over a
common country road, is about as ex
pensive as It was 50 or 100 years ago.
It still costs by that means ten cents
for passengers per afile and 25 cents
a ton for freight.
“It is tbe lack of cheap transporta
tion mainly for which country people
suffer. The remedy for this Is to Im
prove public highways at public ex
pense. When our agricultural people
were first approached with the propo
sition that highways should be perma
nently Improved, they generally resist
ed. because they supposed the entire
cost of improvement would fall upon
their shoulders, according to the gen
erally prevailing custom. But since
they have been assured this burden
will be shared by others, and that a
state fund will be raised from which
a portion of the cost will be paid, and
that this sum may be supplemented by
an appropriation by the national gov
ernment in aid of permanent road
building, the farmers are gradually but
surely turning from an adverse to a
favorable attitude on the general prop
osition.
"By the proposed plan, which Is so
rapidly gaining in favor throughout
the country and in the halls of con
gress. we will have the concentrated
wealth In the great cities assisting the
farmers to Improve highways in the
rural communities. Many hands make
light work, and what was too heavy
for the farmer to bear alone, will be
easily carried when the cost to justly
distributed.”

In St. Petersburg, though it has been re

The Japanese fleet covering the land

two battleships, seven cruisers, three
gunboats, 36 torpedo boats and ten
transports loaded with troops. The
Japanese landed at the village of

Washington, July ' 10.—Postmaster
General Cortelyou has announced the
Issuance of a fraud order against the
People's United States bank of St.
Louis, Mo., its officers and agents, and
E. G. Lewis, a publisher, effective July
9. The action bars the company from
the use of the mails, after an investiga
tion by the postal authorities as to
the details of the business of the insti
tution. The postmaster general In his
announcement says: "It is understood
that the funds of the bank which have
inot been borrowed by Mr. Lewis and
his enterprises, amounting to about
1two-thirds of the total amount remit
ted. are deposited In banks and w'11 be
available toward reimbusement of the
stockholders, who number upwards of
65,000. It Is the Intention of the offi
cers of the post office department to
cooperate with the secretary of state of
Missouri in every proper way for the In
terests of the Investors and depositors."
The Immediate cause for the Issu
'ance, of the fraud order and the begin
:ning of an investigation is a charge
that while Lewis has never put a dol
'lar of bls own money into stock of the
bank he has nevertlftess drawn
82.000,000 from the institution for

Peach Crop Is Fine.
St. Joseph.—The condition^ of the
fruit and berry crop in western Mich
igan is favorable in somexespects and
unfavorable in others. The peach crop
is one of the finest in years, while ap
ples near the lake are good and a dis
tance from the lake a pooraverage. The
strawberry crop was large and of fine
quality, while blackberries and rasp
berries probably will not yield more
than half a crop. Peas show a poor,
yield. Currants and cherries will aver
age half a crop. These conditions apply
generally to tne fruit belt from SL Jo
seph to Muskegon.

Lansing.—One of the first counties In

service have been completed and it will
be inaugurated on August 1. Under this
new arrangement every farmer in the
county will be served, and it will mean
the adidtion of eight new routes and
the discontinuance ot ten post offices.

LANDLORD AND TENANT.
Aside from any agreement by which
the tenant has bound himself to make
repairs he is under no legal obliga
tion to do so, where the damage is or
dinary wear and tear or came by in
evitable accident or by the wrongful
act of a stranger. This means, there
fore, that, aside from an agreement to
a different effect, tbe tenant is bound
only to take reasonable care of the
premises. He must so treat lhe pro
perty that it may revert to tbe land
lord unimpaired by any wilful or
negligent conduct on his part. Where,
however, the tenant has agreed to
make repairs, he must make good all
loss or damage, and must even rebuild
in case of a partial or total destruction
of the premises, eyen though without
bis fault.
Usually tbe contract to repair con
tains the expression, ‘‘ordinary wear
and tear and damage by the element*
excepted.” Just r-hat ‘‘damage by
the elements” is not definitely settled
by lhe courts. Some incline to hold
it as the same as an ‘‘act of God” or
such a happening as man could not
foresee, nor provide against, and such
as that human agency in tbe matter
was absent; hence a loss by flood from
tbe breaking of a dam was not a
“damage by the elements,” and the
tenant was held bound to repair. But
in most states probably, in Michigan
surely, such language excuses the
tenant in case of damage by flood or
fire where the tenant was not at fault.
Aside from agreement, as stated,
the tenant is not bound to repair dam
age that is ordinary wear and tear,
or where caused by an inevitable ac
cident or tbe wrongful act of others.
So a tenant need not replace a plate
glass window broken by a stranger,
or make good a loss from a falling
chimney.

One of the most serious problems
which have of recent days come to
confront the business men of the

threatened retaliation of the Chinese
empire and the boycott on American
goods which our friends, the European
nations, have assisted and promoted.
That we intend to let go our bold on
Oriental markets is not to be consid
ered. The question is, what are we
going to do to save ourselve*? The
revocation of the Chinese exclusion
act would not be wise. It would be an
admission that we are doing what i*
wrong, and leaving an opening for a
renewal of the offense at some later
date. Besides, such action would ior

M. WITTE BAYS ENVOYS MAY
UNABLE TO REACH AM
8l Petersburg. July 18.—M. Witte, the
■enlor Russian peace plenipotentiary. In
an interview Monday, had his direction
called to the disposition of the foreign
press to Interpret his appointment os an
indication that.Russia had decided to
make peace at any price.
"No, no," said he, straightening up in
his chair and speaking slowly and dis
tinctly, as if weighing the value of each
word. "In the first place, I have been
designated by (he emperor as his ambas
sador extraordinary for pour parlers
with the. Japanese plenipotentiaries to
ascertain whether it is possible to con
clude a treaty of peace. My personal
views are of secondary* importance, but
my ideas are in entire accord with those
of my friend. Count Lamsdorff. In serv
ing my emperor, I have received precise
instructions from bls majesty, and shall
follow them. The ultimate decision re
mains in the bands of the emperor, and
it Is for him to decide the destinies of
Russia. The emperor Is the friend of
peace, and desires peace, but I very
much fear that the Japanese terms will
be such that we will be unable to reach
Favors Honorable Peace.
"Secondly, the world should disabuse
its mind of the Idea that Russia wants
peace at any price. There are two par
ties in Russia. One favors the continu
ation of the war a outrance—this is a
large and influential party. The other,
to which I belong, favors peace. I avow
tt frankly, because telling tbe truth has
always been my rule in politics. I was
for peace before hostilities broke out.
When the war began, the situation
changed. Even though there are these
two parties as to the advisability of
ending the war in the present circum
stances.'both would be united if the Jap
anese demands wounded the amour
propre of the Ruslsan people or jeop
ardised our future as a nation. I am
sure if I report that the conditions of
Japan cannot be accepted. Russia will
accept the verdict and the Russian peo
ple will be ready to continue the war
' for years. If necessary.
"
Russia Not Crushed.
Thirdly, Russia is not crushed, as the
foreign press has led the world to be
lieve. The Interior situation is very
serious, I do not deny; but tn Europe
and America the true significance of
what is happening Is not understood.
Correspondents come here and talk with
a few hundred people In SL ePtersubrg
and Moscow, misinterpret what is hap
pening and fill the world with false im
pressions as to Russia's future. Russia
has little resemblance to western coun
tries. To know Russia, to understand
the soul of the Russian people, it is nec
essary that one should have been born
here or lived many years in Russia.
Tbe customs, history and mental psych
ology of the people are entirely different

ever offered to the ladies of Nashville and vicinity.
For
Instance, we have a line of nightgowns, all made from the •
best muslins, that we are selling for aa low as 49 cent*
apiece, and a large line of skirts of tbe same material that
we are selling for as low as 29 cento. They are well made,
in fact better than you can make them yourself, and you
could not buy the raw material for what we ask for the
finished garment. They have red tags on, and anything in
our store that has a red tag on is an exceptional bargain.
We also have a nice line of hammocks and to move

and myself took the Berkshire street
railway for a 15-mile trolley ride to
Adams, the ride is a beautiful one
and the finest we have taken. Leav
ing Pittsfield we follow the old counSroad, which is shaded oh either
e by huge elm and maple trees.
Just out of Pittsfield we pass tbe
beautiful Pontoosuc lake, the shores
of which are lined with cottages and
tents. About four miies out we come
to the sleepy old village ot Lansborough. It is completly embowered
in grand old trees. As we enter the
village, on the right is a small wellkept cemetery. In this cemetry reposes
a noted old time humorist, Henry W.
Shaw, better known as Josh Billings.

of marble, on top of which is the fam

ily of this place. He was noted in
this section for a practical joxer of
tbe harmless kind and many of the
old residents here can tell by the hour
the exploits of this contemporary of
Artemas Ward.
As we leave the little village tbe
track curves and ascends the most
tremendous grade I ever saw. This
grade is in tbe shape ot a letter S and
t of a mile long. We finally reach
the back bone of the ridge. Here
dose by are the bead waters of the
Housatonic and Hoosac river, the
first flowing south and east and emp
tying into the Connecticut river near
the state line, the other flowing north
and west, emptying into tbe Hudson
near Troy, New York. From the Sep
of tills ridge the eye dwells on a beau
tiful panorama of rolling farm land
and old fashioned farm bouses sur
rounded by groves of elm and maple
trees. To the west can be seen the
green clad summits ’of the Taconic
range. To the east is seen'the Hoosac
range.

we make a dash up grade and as we

the front end of the car and -see the
track drop away from us for 50 or 60
rods at a 30 degree slant.

position of director of the Conserva
tory of Music of that college, and
will take up the duties of her new posi

therefore, one ot the pioneer schools
of the west. Crete is a city of about
3500 people and h located twenty
miles west of Lincoln. The officials
of Doan College wrote to President
Lancaster and Mrs. Bintiliff of tbe
conservatory of Olivet to recommend

When a certain resident of this
town goes out to buy stocx now he is
more careful in getting home with all
that he buys than be has been in the
past. A snort time ago he went out
west of town and purchased a bog and
a veal calf, and had nearly reached
town when he found that the hog was
missing. He looked in vain for the
animal, even going to one farm-house
and claimed that a hog that be saw
there was the missing property until
convinced that he was in the wrong,
and at length he was compelled to re
turn to town and get reinforcements
to aid in the search. ' After looking in
swamps and nearly every coceivable
place, they at length found the hog
calmly lying under a tree by the side
of the road, apparently unconscious
of the trouble it was causing.

family- "No one will believe me, but
it is a fact my mind has not been

what I have lost and cannot rest until

to be up to the usual standard aad all
took part without hesitation. Tbe pro
gram was c-pened by club song, "Come,
Come Away,” followed by devotional ex
ercises by Chaplain Mayo. During the
business session, which followed, Garrison
Moore, president of tbe Assyria Citizens'
Telephone company, reported that tbe
company was waning for the contracts
before further progress could be made
with the line. The literary program was
opened with a discussion, "What is the
most profitable crop of this locality and
how can it be produced at less cost,” led
by C. Tuckerman. In his opinion corn
w*as the most profitable crop, although in
some localities it could be produced at less
coat than in others because of the differ
ence in tbe soil. A discussion of tbe sub
ject was enthusiastically taken up by
Garrison Moore. C. L Briggs, and I. W.
Cargo. It was their opinion that corn
was the most profltable crop, and that
one of tbe most economical ways of hand
ling it was drilling in rows and feeding
tbe crop- to ca'-tle without husking it.
This discussion wm followed by a reading
entitled ••Fussing.” by Mrs. J. Hill. It
described very accurately the habit some
people have of making miserable those
with whom they associate, by continual
worrying and fretting over the trifling
perplexities of every day life. Mias Eva

Adams, Mass., July 16, '05
Dear News: In my last letter
7
I will keep my promise, although I
will be in Ntebvllle ere the readers of
The News have perused these lines.
First I will tell you about the Hoosac tunnel.
This tunnel is on the
Fitchburg railroad, which is a .direct
route from Troy, New York, to Boeten. The western end of the tunnel is
just outside tbe city limits of North
Adams. It is the longest underground
excavation on this continent, being
41 miles long. It wm begun 'way
back in the early fifties and it was
not until 1876 that tbe first train ran
through it.
At first a single track
wm laid, and It wm not until 1887
that it wm finally finished and double
track laid. It cost *17,000,000. As
is usual with such great undertakings
it furnished its quota of victims, 200
men having lost their lives during its
construction.
Midway through the
tunnel a 14-foot shaft extends clear up
through to the top of the mountain.
One day Mrs. Raymond and myself
and uncle Ed Raymond went up to
North Adams to take a ride through
<he tunael and back. Having secured
tbe required passports (our tickets)
we got on tbe first train that came
along. The mouth of the tunnel is
abeet i of a mile from the depot.
Before entering, the lamps tn the
cars are lighted and the doors and
windowa are tightly closed to keep
out the smoke and gM from the engine
The train started and soon we began
to burrow our way under old Hoosac
mountain. Tbe writer stood in tbe
rear of the car and looked through
the window in the door and watched
the daylight at the entrance gradually
grow smaller and smaller until it fad
ed from view. Tbe Innumerable in
candescent lights that were strung
along the wails of the tunnel on
either side, gave no more light that
eo many tallow candles. The air In-
the strong odor of gas began to per
vade the atmosphere.
As we ap
proached the shaft the air was better,
but as we left it it became close again.
After an interminable length of time
we emerged at the eastern portal.
The writer timed tbe trip through the
tunnel and it wm just 1 minutes.
About one-half mile from tbe east
ern portal is a little station where we
lefttbe train. After spending about
two hours in viewing the beautiful
As we journeyed through this sub
terranean passage in the bowels of
tbe earth, 1600 feet below the realms
of sunshine, we were reminded of Jules
Verne’s story “A Trip to tbe Cen

party of four, consisting of a cousin
and wife, Mrs. Raymond and myself,

We did not make tbe Mcent of
Greylock during the trip, but will
give you an account of our trip up
the mountain four years ago. It was
during this visit to tbe summit that
we had the rare privilege of viewing a
thunder stprm from the upper .side.
July 2, 1901, a party of six composed
of a cousin and his wife and daugh
ter, Uncle Ed and ChM. H. Raymond
and myself made an early start for
the summit of Greylock.
The first
five miles wm up te North Adams
over a smooth and level road, follow
ing the river all the way.
Al North
Adams tbe river makes a short turn
te the west, tbe city being built in tbe
elbow formed, having a population of
30,000, and is a busy manufacturing
town. Turning west hare we follow
the road to Williamstown, about a
mile, then turning abruptly te the left
gradually commenced the ascent.
A
long, deep valley extends up into tbe
mountain on tbe north side, forming a
crescent with tbe pointe te the north.
We gradually worked our way up tbe
left band spur of the mountain. It is
cleared quite a distance up the slope,
which is quite steep.
The road zig
zags back and forth along the side
of the mountain. At one place where
we stepped to let the horses rest we
saw the road in four places below us.

We finally reached the timber and
passed into long green archways, with
now and then a glimpse of the blue

the marquis, “you may not enter those

Grafton thought his hour was come.
But no. not yet!
“Search no farther,” exclaimed a
sharp voice from the othpr side'of the
room, as de Vltre, pale as death, threw
down the screen and revealed himself.
He had heard all, divined all. Anne
loved him not. He would sacrifice
himself for her. for her lover, pay back
some of the debt he owed to Grafton.
“Oh. thank God, thank God!” cried
Anne, rising to her feet and shrinking
back against th; door-frame.
"Monsieur de Vltre!" the marquis
called out. In great surprise.
“Capt. de Vltre, by heaven, what do
you here,” demanded de Kersalnt.
springing forward: threateningly.
“Messlfetirs. I came here as the right
ful betrothed of Mademoiselle Rohan,
as the man who had received her troth
in New France. Resolved to make one
more appeal to her. I left the banquet
hall to throw myself at her feet.”
"Did you come by the invitation of
mademoiselle?" asked de Kersalnt.
"Nd, monsieur.
I came unan

"You love this man. mademoiselle?"
"Alas! no. Monsieur de Kersalnt."
answered Anne. “I esteem him. He
sought my hand under peculiar cir

Mopsieur le Marquis, and when I told
him of it he laughed at me."
“'Twas but a boy and girl affair, de
Kersalnt, not worth mentioning," an
swered the marquis.
"But he came here?"
“Yee. yes. monsieur.” cried Anne.
“But without an invitation, and. inde<M. unwelcome. The mystery is now
over. Retire, gentlemen. I beg of you.
This has been too much for the.**
The marquis'started to 'peak, when
something caught his eye and be
stopped as if petrified. Resisting his
first Impulse to cry out, he slipped
around to the table near the screen,
and covering it vilth his person re
mained silent, his gaze fixed tn cold
suspicion upon his granddaughter.
As for de Kersalnt. he would let him
fight his own battle; afterward he had
other plans. De Kersalnt stopped and

“Nay. Monsieur de Vltre. I can not

exclaimed the girl, stretching out her
arm. He seized her hand, dropped on

forehead upon It.
"This for life and honor," he whis

CHAPTER XXVI.
S the three men and the
servants left the room,
with an expression of re
lief so great that she could
not describe it, Anne sank down in
the chair by the table. She thought
her lover extricated at last from his
precarious position.
Her emotions
during the last few moments, when she
feared that the marquis would dis
cover his presence, and then when de
Vitro had so nobly interfered tn his
behalf, had been almost mon- than
she could bear. She forgot fbr the
moment that the marquis had not gone
with the others. She had not remarked
his suspicious silence, bls strange
movement, in the excitement of the
passing moments.
"Now. Modemoiseile de Rohan." he
said harshly, “since this play has been
played out and the actors in the little
comedy have departed, will you be
good enough to explain the situation?
Will you tell me who it was that wore
Josette’s cloak; who listened in the
armory; whoa, you have entertained
in this room, whom you conoeai in
your chamber?"
"What mean you, monsieur?" sbs
faltered, all her terror coming back
again. "Monsieur de Vitro—"
"De Vltre is a,.fool." exclaimed the
marquis angrily, “and yet 1 admire the
man. He took it all upon himself like
a gallant gentleman.”
"Monsieur de Vitre told nothing but
the truth, monsieur."
“Quite so.", answered the marquis,
with difficulty restraining himself. He
was in deadly earnest, with the sup
pressed fury of his most dangerous
moment “Quite so1. I have no doubt
he told the truth. It spoke in his eyes.
But did he tall it all? You answer not
But what need?
Did Monsieur de
Vitro leave this hat on the table? I
have seen hats like that, mademoiselle,
but upon English heads.”
“ Monsieur.'' stammered the girl.
“No more faltering!" continued the
marquis, pacing back and forth before
her. “He is here. A lover in your
room, an Englishman, and you have
betrayed me, betrayed your honor;

the camps. “Stand aside!"

arm. She struggled to bar the way.

"Do you think it is necessary,” she
replied, “for you to ask me what Is the
matter ?”
William Dlnglethwalte's jaw dropped
and his expression of frankness gave
*®y to • shifty, hang-dog look.
The other woman was in hiding when
the 'bus arrived at the hotel, but Mrs.
Dlnglethwaite was not slow In hitting
the trail.
“Come,” she said to her husband,
“we’ll go over to the golf club. There's
somebody over there that you’ll be glad
to meet”
“See here. Elizabeth.” he demanded as
she wte hurrying him along; “what's
the trouble? Something's gone wrong.
Have I done anything?"
"Ha\e you done anything?
H'ml
Oh, no! Of course you haven't!”
There was a flash in her eyes, how
ever. that caused him to wince and want
to run away.
The other woman was sitting alone ou
the shaded bench near the first tree.
Her back was turned toward the ap
proaching couple. Suddenly Mrs. Din
giethwaite. grasping her husband's arm
so that he might not escape, appeared
in front of the shameful creature.
William Dlnglethwaite and the other
woman bowed and said: "How do you
do?" Then they looked with wonder
at the gentleman's wife, who seemed
suddenly to have realized that she must
have made amlstak®.
"What." she managed to ask. address
ing the other woman, “did you mean by
that—that remark you made about my
husband this forenoon?"
“4 had forgotten that I made a re
mark about him." the other woman re
plied.
“When 1 said he was inclined to fol
low the line of least resistance, you re
plied thd! that accounted for some
thing. What did you mean?"
Mrs. Dlnglethwaite was trembling, her
breath* was coming in quick gasps, and it
was evident that her nerves were under
a terrible strain.
/
"Oh," answered the other woman, "I
meant merely that that must account for
his having married you. Won't you sit
down? There's room here for three.”
She must have been mistaken—the
other woman—but she thought William
Dlnglethwaite winked as be looked back

••Yes." sighed Mrs. Dlnglethwaite, “I
must admit that my husband is one of
these ipeu who always proceed along
the line of least resistance.”
“Indeed," replied Che other woman;
“then that accounts for 1L"
The other woman was still young and
•till fair to look upon. Moreover, she
was a heroine. She had been divorced.
Oh. do, no, no! She had not been to
blame! Why. she was as Innocent as a
child. How could she help it If men
would turn to look at her and make re
marks about her beauty? But the man
she had been married to was Inordinate
ly jealous, and, being so, he wanted to
keep her shut up at home, with the cur
tains drawn, as If he were a grand Turk
and she his harem. Was it to be won
dered al that she rebelled and went home
to her mother?
But Mrs. Dlnglethwaite elevated the
tip of her nose in the presence of her
friends and made careless remarks that
were not complimentary to the other
woman. Mrs. Dlnglethwaite even hint

Now. It was but natural that the things
which Mrs. Dlnglethwaite said and
hinted at should have been told by her
loving friends to the other woman,
wherefore the other woman, of coarse,
whetted her tomahawk.

Who do you think will win out, Ste

"Alas! I fear the conditions favor

sigh. "He is dangerously handsome
and fascinating. Stephen is too mas

an occasion."
"She is divinely tall." said the man.
■till gazing at the young girl. "Did
you tell me she was an orphan? She
seems to be chaperoned by Mrs. Weston."
"She stays with Mrs. Weston while
her parents ar* traveling," replied
Rose.
"What are they troweling for. and

when I was quite a child to be edu

Weston, who ti-w in mo a resemblance

There was a profound silence after
this astonishing revelation, which
came oo suddenly that Rose with all
her tact knew not what to say. She
not an adept at concealing his feelings,
and she feared his Intense surprise
would hurt Pearl. He was the first
to break the gjlence.
"My dear Miss Craig,” he said with
a kindly smile, “tt does indeed seem
odd that one so tall should come of a
dwarfed race, but I can match you In
family peculiarities. I have a brother
who la his own uncle!”
"Tom, what are you talking about!”
exclaimed Rose In relieved tones.
"It is true,” he peraisted. "He mar
ried his step aunt, and of course his
aunt's husband would be his uncle!”
Pearl laughed heartily, and Rose felt
that she did indeed love him for tak
ing the astounding Information so
easily. Lionel recovered himself and
began questioning Pearl about her lite
and her parents, as If It were a most
ordinary statement she had made.
Stephen alone was tongue-tied and ill
at ease.
“He looks.” thought Rom, "like a
man wbo baa had a most terrible
shock.”
When he finally spoke. It was to
propose departure. Lionel acquiesced
and asked Pearl if he might escort her
home, but she explained that she was
staying with Rose. Stephen merely
bowed his adieu.
“X’ll never again," reflected Rom,
"judge a man by appearances. They
both acted just the reverse of what
I expected."
In the evening Tom came again,
but this time alone.
"I thought,” said Rom, "that Lionel
would come up with you?"
“Lionel has just left ths city. Ho

"Et tu. Bru^e," thought Rose, glanc-

"Certainly; if you and Rose will go

Old Hawke lifted and waved his

LANDLORD AND TENANT.
No. 5. Is tbe landlord bound to
make the premises tenantable? When
is tbe tenant justified' in abandoning
the premises or refusing to pay rent?
Where there is nothing in the lease
laying an obligation on tbe landlord
to make tbe premises tenantable, it is
implied in the law that the tenant took
tbe premises as they stood; in other
words, there is no implied warranty
on the part of the landlord that tbe
premises are tenantable. Tbe great
exception to this rule is in cases
where there is some secret or con
cealed defect tn the premises which
renders them dangerous to life or
beslthi, and the defect was known to
the landlord and unknown to tbe ten
ant. For instance, if tbe tenant should
rent property without knowing that it
had bren occupied just previously by
a small pox patient and this fact was
within tbe knowledge of tbe landlord,
tbe tenant should be justified in aban
doning tbe premises. Some cases
have gone to tbe extent of saying toat
exception covers a case of defective
beating or defective plumbing where
the defects go to the extent of endan
gering life or health.!
Tie tenant should see to it that in
tiie lease tbe landlord agrees to keep
the premises in a tenantable condi
tion: nor should tbe tenant forget

After a lease has been executed tbe
pair is void, unless there was a con
sideration given for the promise; nor
would a landlord's promise to repair

Any Inducement, whether by writing
or by 'word of mouth, made by the
landlord, which leads the tenant to
rent and which afterwards proves to
be false or fraudulent, will of course
justify the tenant in abandoning, but
Another class of cases is where the
landlord agrees to make certain re
pairs or improvements before tbe ten
ant takes possession. We have seen
that after the tenant has once taken
possession a broken promise on tbe
landlord, as a rule, does not justify
refusing to pay rent or abandoning,
but where the landlord bas failed to
make the repairs or tbe Improvements
and the tenant bas not yet taken pos
session, the tenant may refuse to take
possession on the ground that he h
released from his contract. Here, as
in other cases, we caution the tenant
that if the lease itself is in writing the
landlord’s agreement regarding reRairs, to be binding, must be inserted

rule of the law that where a contract

Mrs. Naught.
The young murrled man found the
five minutes' chat that he had with her
exceedingly' Interesting. It was borxie
in upon him in a vague sort of way
that she had tbe knack of selecting tho
right sort of alluring perfumes, that
she most decidedly knew how to do up
her wavy raven hair, that the simplic
ity of her tailor-wrought gown was
fetching .to a degree—and other things
that occasionally flit through the dull
minds of male persons, married or sin
gle, bold and i«ad, or otherwise.
About a week later he happened to
drop into a matinee performance at
one of the theaters. He stood behind
the last row of seats to watch an act
or so of the show. The radiant Mrs.
Naught happened to have a seat in the
last row. What more natural than that,
during the entr'acte, the bold, ba-ad
young married man should bend over
and engage in.< little cheerful talk.
Three or four days later he met the
piquantly mysterious Mrs. Naught on
the street, and she was good enough to
permit him to walk a square or so with
her. They talked of the depth of tne
blue empyrean that arched above them,
the probability of an early spring, etc.
A few days later still Mrs. Naught
boarded a street car on which the
young married man was riding down
town.
Now, this young married man's wife
belong to the type of young matrons
who exclaim, when the subject of jeal
ousy ia breathed:
"Jealous T Deed. I wouldn't give tbe
best man alive the satisfaction of be
ing jealous of him!**
It therefore goes without saying that
she was almost ridiculously jealous of
her husband.
When the young married man
reached his flat on the evening of the
day on which -he.had ridden.down town
in the street car with the Lorlelvolced Mrs. Naught he found the wife
of bls bosom In a state that oscillated
between tears and extreme wrath.
"Read the indictment, my dear," he
said to her. “What have T done now’’’
“Wretch!" she exclaimed, tearfully,
"Don't you dare to attmpt to pull the
wool over my eyep! I know all—all?"
“Look here, my dear." said he,
“you're only laying off—fooling, aren't
you?”
,
“Fooling! How dare you!” she ex
claimed, tragically. "Do you think I

Lansing, Mich., Aug. 7.—Plans for the
Michigan state fair, which is to be held
in Detroit in September, are rapidly be
ing hatched out by the business commit
tee, and now all arrangements are
steady advanclng--tc completion. Ar
rangements have been made for special
days at the fair. Tuesday, September
12. will be Exhibition day, and tbe next
will be Michigan day. On this occasion
the formal dedication of the fair will
take place, and President Francis, of the
Louisiana Purchase exposition, has
been asked to speak. He has made a
conditional acceptance, and if he cannot
be present, some other well-known man
will be asked, invitations have been sent
to the governor, the mayor of Detroit,
state officials and others. Luncheon will
be served to the invited guest*. Detroit
day will be either Thursday, September
14. or the Saturday following. The mat
ter of auto races and other attractions
has been left to President Fifleld. The
plan is to have races and a parade for
one or two day* while the fair is run
ning. One state fair official, who is al
most in ecstacle* over the bright pros
pects for a successful show this year,
elucidates a* follows: "In establishing
the state fair at Detroit, the Michigan
Agricultural society is desirous of mak
ing its annual exposition thoroughly
representative, not only of all the activ
ities tn the state, but of their highest
expression. They hope, by this means,
to bring th* state fair into do*er rela
tions with all classes of the community,
and thus to widen their sphere of influ
ence and strength tbeir appeal, by a gen
eral raising of the plane of exhibits. By
its nature, the stats fair is a popular in
stitution, and wherever established
would attract crowds from "up state”
and small country towns and hamlcuf,
both as exhibitor* and as sight-seers.
Of that attendance, therefore, the so
ciety is already assured, but if the state
fair is to become an annual event and im
portant factor In that larger and more
critical audience of the large towns and
cities, it must offer a somewhat higher
and more subtle lure than prize cattle,
mammoth squashes, intricate machinery
and marvelous patch work quilts, estima
ble as are all of these. The city-bred
man. the student, artisan and craftsman
want, tn order to feel the same loyal and
Intimate relation to the state fair, to be
given also adequate expression of their
activities in the fields of craftsmanship.
Indeed, to prove a continued attraction
from year to year, the housing of the ex
hibits. architecturally, must be of a more
dignified and beautiful nature than hith
erto; the grounds and approaches must
be treated with foresight and skill by
competent landscape artists, and not In
the generally hit or miss style; in short,
a centra] Idea should pervade the whole,
throughout all departments.**
Art and artistic effect will be looked
ifter at the state fair by Art Superintend
ent B. E. Hall, of Port Huron, who has
associated with himself as • committee
A. H. Griffith, Miss Clara E. Dyar and
Mlns Helen Plumb. The general ide*
of the committee is to scatter the art
exhibit throughout all the building*, and
make it show up as a part of the general
scheme. This committee wilt also give
advisory aid In the arrangement of fruit*
and flower* and In th e decoration and fin
ish of buildings.
Btate Thief Catcher* Meet.
The twelfth annual meeting of Michigan
Police. Sheriffs' and Prosecuting At
torneys’ association was held at Jackson
and the session was one of the most in-*
terestlng in the history of the organiza
tion. There was a gnagjsttendance at
the convention of thief catchers, the
meetings of which were held In the Elks'
temple. Mayor Todd delivered the ad
dress of welcome and Mr. Clute respond
ed. The latter figured out that there are
500,000 constable* in Michigan. 83 sher
iffs, and a sufficient number of deputies,
town marshals, night watches and met
ropolitan policemen to make a good

that have been asleep for yean, as the
result of public opinion." said Vice Pres
ident Clute, of Ionia, in hia response to
the address of welcome at the opening
of tbe meeting. *1 believe the old blue
laws should be left in repose and not res

Don’t Use River Ice.
Health Officer Nottingham has issued
a warning to the people of Lansing*not to
use river Ice in drinking water. This
warning is of as great value to other
Michigan cities as it ts to Lansing, it
should be heeded. “Everyone knows.*'
he declared, "that the sewage of the city
goes into the river and that the ice sold
here is taken from the stream. It is not
unlikely that typhoid fever may be
caused thereby.” While the health offi
cer thinks that the use of river ice in
drinking water is dangerous, he says
it may be safely used for all ordinary
purposes. He will urge the enactment
of a law prohibiting the taking of ice
from the river below the points where

exists in the Curtis school district, near

moved away, and another was appointed
to fill the vacancy. ’ When the time for

persons attended, both being members
of the board. As they did not care to
elect themselves to offlee no meeting
was held. A teacher has applied for
the school, but as the directors* time ex

of their position.' The matter was re

Improve the surroundings under which
their hogs are raised. In doing this we
have little doubt but what they are
.making active bids for cheaper means
of production, in that fewer hogs will
die. and a better growth for all that
reach maturity.
How to provide clean water for the

and yet be so arranged that the hogs
■will not wallow in it. It appears, how
ever, as though a valuable suggestion
looking to the solution of this point bas
been made in a late Issue ot the Iowa
Homestead by a Kansas farmer who
suggests a plan from which the accom
panying cut has been made. Writing
to our contemporary, this man says:
"It is my opinion that many of the
(maladies and much of the fatalities
among hogs Is due to carelessness on
the part ot the owner by which the hog
da compelled to take Into his system
larg - quantities of filth in his drinking
water. I know where there are wallow
ing places It is indeed a problem to
prevent this, because if there is one
thing which a hog delights in more than
another it is to bathe himself In mud
and then try to dry it off In the drinking
trough; and he generally succeeds quite
well. And a bunch of them can usually
put three or four inches of mud In the
bottom of a trough In a single week. I
enclose yon a drawing illustrating the
plan that I have used for some time In
trying to keep my troughs clean. The
trough In this case is made out of two
planks, one 2x8 and the other 2x6. a
piece of eight-inch plank 15 Inches
long nailed on each end. To this in
turn two other planks are nailed, thus
furnishing an agency for scraping off
considerable mud from the hogs while
they are drinking. 1 then nail on an
upright, as is Indicated In the illustra
tion, mortised out so that a plank may
be raised or lowered directly above the
center of the trough, the height depend
ing upon the size of the hogs that have
access to tbe trough. I acknowledge
that It takes a little labor to make
troughs of this kind, but where one has
a big bunch of hogs I believe that he
can save tbe j
of his material and
labor almost e
day.”

Small Farmer Will Find It to His Ad
vantage to Provide Ono or Mora
Crops for Feeding of Swine.
The small farmer can ill afford to
raise hogs without providing one or
more forage crops for them. These
are necessary from an economical as
well as sanitary standpoint, as when a
hog has access to plenty of forage It
will thrive better than on an exclusive
grain ration. Among successful for
age crops tor hogs 1 highly regard clo
ver, cowpeas, soy-beans, sweet potatoes
and Spanish peanuts, writes Godfrey
Winkler, in Midland Farmer. Sorghum
is not to be despised. And as with many
of these crops bogs can do their own
harvesting, it saves labor to some ex
tent
In a test at the South Carolina experi
ment station four lots of pigs were used.
One lot was fed Spanish peanuts, one
was fed sweet potatoes, one cowpeas
and the remaining lot was fed corn.
The yield of Spanish peanuts was 90
bushels; of sweet potatoes. 200 bushels;
cowpeas. 10 bushels. The amount of the
different feeding stuffs required to produce one pound of pork was as follows:
Corn. 6.02 pounds; Spanish peanuts,
4.43 pounds; sweet potatoes. 32.47
pounds, and cowpeas, 4.91 pounds. Now
taking in account the gains made and
the yield of the different crops, and rat

“RIP VAN WINKLE.”
Washington Irving’s masterpiece.
“Rip Van Winkle”, will be the at
traction at the Nashville opera house
on next Monday night. This great
play is under tbe management of
Holden Bros., who have a wide repu
tation for only first class productions.
Mr. Harry Jackson, the noted Eng
lish actor, will appear aa “Rip”, tbe
vagabond of the Catskills, “loved by
all tbe children and tbe dogs of the
village.” Mr. Jackson (tbe son of
the late Harry Jackson who was stage
director of the “Princess” and “Drury
Lane” theatres, London, England)
began his career as a child actor at
Maguire’s opera bouse, San Francis
co, California, with John McCullough,
Lawrence Barrett, etc., and was the
“Oliver Twist" when that play was
produced by James A. Hearne and
Lucille Western. Later Mr. Jackson
came east playing * ’Young Heindrick”
in “Rip Van
Winkle” with Mr.
Joseph Jefferson, and children's
parts in productions made by Edwin
Forrest, after which, in company with
the elder Jackson, be went to England
and became a member of the Stock
company controlled by Ava Cavend

/NEW ENTERPRISE ASSURED.
V It is now almost certain that Nash
ville is to have the new paper box
factory for which the Board of Trade
and the citizens of the village have
been working and planning for some
time past.
The company will start
with a capital of <10,000, and will
manufacture folding egg crates for
tbe use of retail grocers, folding pap
er boxes of all kinds, ice cream and
oyster pails, lard and butter dishes,
and expects to work later into the
manufacture of several other special
ties, among which are a paper milk
boltie, cans for condensed milk and
like products. .Tbe company will .be
known as tbe Brown Specialty Com
pany. The location for the plant has
not yet been definitely decided upon,
but several places are in view which
will answer the pupose well.
It is
hoped to organize the company and
secure a charier from the state next
week, and as soon a» that is done
active work will be commenced to get
tbe plant into shape to commence
□ianufacturing. It is anticipated that
tbe plant will give employment to
forty to fifty people inside of the first
year, and about one half of this num
tier will be women and girls.
The stock has not yet been all sub
scribed, but prospects are good, and
every citizen of the village who is able
to do so should put bla shoulder to
tbe wheel and help push. The estab
lishment of this plant is important to
tbe village, as it is looted upon as an
entering wedge for other enterprises,

notably “Rip Van Winkle.” Since
the death of Mr. Joseph Jefferson Mr.
Jackson is conceeded to be the great
est “Rip” in this country. And this is
a brief oiography of tbe big star who
will appear here next Monday night,
it is a treat none of us should miss.
The supporting company is one of the
strongest ever carried for this play.
The piece contains considerable of
the comedy element, songs, dances,
etc. Tbe prices of admission will be
but 25, 35 and 50 cents. Be advised in
time and secure your seats in advance.
AN ERROR CORRECTED.
Misled by the name, and by the
fact that it is a southern play,
impression prevails that “A Romance
of Coon Hollow” 1* a negro show.
This a great mistake, as tbe entire
cast is composed of well known white
artiste of standing, and tbe colored
buck dancers and-jubilee singers are
simply"introduced fb their plantation
scenes to illustrate negro life in the
south, but have no relation to the
story of the drama. The latter Is a
pretty Southern love story, natural
and pastoral in its treatment, and
what the New York Herald styled “a
Southern Old Homestead.”
Splendid scenic environment, novel
electrical effects, laughable Incidents,
and specialties appropriate to the
comedy, embellish as sincere a heart
story as is to be seen on tbe stage to
day. “A Romance of Coon Holloa
now in its eleyenth season, with the
same scenery, effects and company
used in the original production in
New York, will be given at the Nash

stout cord and tightly they tied tt
about the cat’s neck. Its yellow hair
glistened in the moonlight and tbe cat
playfully pawed at the string as it was

“One—two—three—” he said.

“It seemed like it was right under

“There’s no mistaking that cat’s

hanging here,” Smith interposed, “and
he is quite stiff.”
“Funny how we should all dream
the same thing," said, still another.
And the neighborhood went back to

Lansing, Mich.. Aug. 14.—Investiga
tion of the Michigan state prison at
Jackson has been completed, and War
den Vincent has been vindicated of the
charges against him. Throughout the
report the board evinces the greatest
confidence In Mr. Vincent and his sys
tem of discipline, while hinting that
those below him. perhaps aiming at
Foote, his accuser, were not worthy.
The board thinks chat “with certain
disturbing elements removed," the
warden will show the world a few
things about prison management. Over
the tailor shop Murderer Higgins sits
at his old place. The presses of the
“Optimist" are cold, the type pled. It
has been discontinued. The convict
baker, who is said to have sold baking
on the side, now works for the state.
Trusty Daniels, who sprinkles the
lawn, does it under many watchful
eyes. Things will be changed, but
only in the high spots. The board by
its action placed the stamp of its ap
proval on Vincent's system of prison
discipline, a system that has attracted
country-wide attention. The prevail
ing opinion is that tbe board's action
was all cut and dried, and that Vin
cent was slated for the white coat.
Gov. Bliss' memory was very, very
bad concerning the "butter and eggs"
arrangement for charging cigars used
by the warden in the entertainment of
legislators and other state officials.
Attorney Colgrove questioned the for

Flaws in Enactment.
Judge Alfred J. Murphy, of Detroit,
In a recent letter to Warden.Fuller of
the reformatory at Ionia, calls atten
tion to an interesting phase of the
new indeterminate sentence law which
went Into effect June 7 last, repealing
the law passed In 1963. ’ Judge Murphy
holds that a prisoner whose crime was
committed previous to June 7, 1905.
cannot receive an indeterminate sen
tence under the npw law. or under the
Indeterminate law of 1903, but must
receive a definite sentence under the
old law in force previous to September
17. 1903. Judge Murphy says: “The
authorities seem to agree that when a
statute Is repealed and afterwards the
repealing act itself is repealed by a
later statute the earlier law is thereby
revived." Warden Fuller will ask At
torney General John E. Bird for his in
terpretation of the new law.

Tbe effects of this action will be that
the drugs named, when sold, must be
labeled with the word "Polson," and
the name and address of the seller;
that in the case of liquids, they must

Cecil suddenly stopped at one of the

“By Jove!” he said. "I should think

A GOOD PLAY COMING.
One of the best plays that will be
seen here this season is "Rip Van

ville opera house on Monday night,
August 21. Mr. Barry Jackson, the
well known English actor, will be
seen In the part of “Rip’’, the vaga
bond of the Catskills. Since the
death of Joseph Jefferson, Mr. Jack
son 1b conceded to be tbe greatest
"Rip” in thia country. For several
years be played in tbe original pro
duction with Mr. Jefferson. The play
is enlivened with a number of songs,
dances, bright catchy music, etc. Lit
tle Allie Opie, who is one of the most
clever child actresses on the Amerlcan stage, will be with this company.
"Rip" and bis funny sayings are
sure to furnish plenty of the comedy
element. This same company plays
all tbe larger cities of Michigan, in
cluding Jackson. Kalamazoo. Grand
Rapids, Battle Creek, Saginaw, Bay
City, Flint, etc.

Vienna, about five yean ago began
seeking a means of artificially filling
the bone cavities, and for a time ex

Iodoform. This failed to reach all
parts of the cavity. A new filling has
been adopted, therefore, consisting of
iodoform, spermaceti and loeesame,

�A ROMANCE OF THE DAYS WHEN “THE
GREAT LORD HAWKE" WAS KING OF THE SEA
CYRUS TOWNSEND BRADY
FROM DEATH UNTO LIFE.
INCE early morning the sur
geons from the English ships
had been working with th*
wounded on Le Formidable,
and details of seamen had been work

that, while ahe was still a picture of
ruin and devastation, she was in a
very much better condition than she
had been. Most of the severely
wounded had died in the interim, and
their bodies had been cast overboard
with as much reverence as the dexnands of the living and their pressing
necessities admitted, which was not
much. Those who yet remained alive
were fast becoming amenable to the
treatment, but the ship itself was a
sufficiently ghastly place. In spite of
all that had been done for her and for
her crew, to have appalled the stoutest
heart.
.
Philip’s wife, however, saw nothing
of this. There was nothing before
her heart but her husband and hl*
welfare. She knew nothing, saw nothing. thought of nothing but. him. She

She bad still strength to get to his

way toward Le Formidable, with her
eyes cloned, hex lips murmuring
prayer*. And. though her eyes were
opened on the ship, it made little dif
ference to her. She stood on the
wreck as one blind. Hatflcld helped

“I am his wife.” she answered, push

There was her husband. He was

looked utterly exhausted—dying. The
fever which had possessed him had re

THE GREAT CX)W CASE
The facts In the case of McGlue rersua
Rollins were these:
Rollins' cow, it seems, while feeding
on the common, got through a place al
leged by the defendant to have been
purposely left open tn the fence of McGiu’es garden. She did some damage,
but was driven out, and when McGlue
remonstrated with Rollins about th"
predatory and Incendiary tendencies of
his cow, Rollins replied with defama
tory and unparliamentary language.
Thereupon McGlue went up and sued
him for trespass, and wore to push the
case to the last extremity. McGlue's
lawyer. Poddery. went right to work,
and when Rollins heard about ft, he got
his lawyer, Hopkins, to bring a counter
suit for conspiracy to entrap the cow.
McGlue then told Poddery to begin a
second suit, for damages done to eight
fence palings and a post, by Rollins’
cow, and Rollins also made a fresh start
in another suit against McGlue in which
he claimed 415 for the ruin of his cow’s
norn by McGlue’s grape arbor. Thia
seemed to McGlue so audacious that he
ordered Poddery to Include in bls claim
the market price of four cabbages and a
bunch of parsley, that the cow ate.
He said he would have let them go as of
no account if Rollins hadn't proved him
self such a conscienceless scoundrel.
But the last movement exasperated
Roilins to such a degree that be went
over and got old Mrs. Muldooney to
make an affidavit that she saw McGlue
milking the cow. while it was in his lot.
in th<? wash boiler. Armed with this af
fidavit. Hopkips had McGlue arrested,
and he was held in custody to answer a
charge of petty larceny
McGlue was furious. He got Poddery
to open a new suit, based upon the facts
that Rollins’ cow had scared one of his
children into fits, injuring the child’s
constitution, and Involving large ex
penditures for medical attendance. But
just as the constable was going out to
serve the notice. Rollins came In and
swore out a fresh process against Mc
Glue for damages done to the cow by
McGlue's setter pup biting her In the
near hind leg just above the ankle.
Poddery then told McGlue that tne
time had come for decisive action—that,
unless justice was a mockery and human
rights a hollow sham, he must settle
this man Rollins at once. So McGlue
ordered a new suit against Rollins for
destruction of his property, in permit
ting his cow to rub the whitewash off
of the corner of McGlue’s smokehouse;
and McGlue said he would carry the case
to the supreme court If it should be nec
essary.
Rollins met this assault by putting in
a demand for compensation for the hair
loat by his cow by coming In collision
with McGlue's smokehouse, and at the
suggestion of Lawyer Hopkins he add
ed a sworn Item in which he showed
that the digesti*i of the cow had been
permanently ruined by the doorknob
of the smokehouse, irhich was so loose
that it came off when the cow nibbled
it and was swallowed.
.
When McGlue called to ask Poddery
what should be done now that eminent
lawyer was out. buying a house and lot
with rbe fees that had already accrued
from the great cow case Hopkins, at
that moment, was paying off an old
mortgage with is fees.
When Poddery came in he said things
had now reached a crisis.
McGlue’s
clear duty was to throw himself upon
his country and to stamp out this fiend
who was pursuing him with malignant
fury. After talking it over for an hour.
Poddery took out the papers in another
suit tn which McGlue accused Rollins
of breach of the peace in permitting bis
cow to wake Mrs. McGlue's baby In the
very trisis of the mumps, by its ‘’moo
ing;’’ and still another in which McGlue
Claimed compensation for the brick
which he heaved at the cow, and for the
manual labor expended in the effort.
Rollins retaliated by arresting Mc
Glue for corrupting the morals of RolUns' boy. Jim, by the use okprufane and
scandalous language while he was strivIng to eject
. the cow. As soon as McGlue
entered bail he told the squire that he

Beatrice Howiblow. aged seven, was
shot and seriously injured. Four
boys, Willis Adams. Archie Smith.
Charles Whitaker and Riley Adsit
are held by the police pending an in

striking her on the arm and entering
her body. The injuries are not fatal.
Smith, who held the rifle, says he
did not do the deed intentionally.

STANDARD TIME.
After next Monday the people of
Nashville will probably go by stand
ard time. A petition will go before
the common council at its next meet
ing Monday night, and to tbe school
board, asking them to adopt stand
ard time, and as nearly If not all of
tbe members of both bodies favor the
Idea it is probable that the change
will be made.
Both of the local
jewelry stores will set their regulat
ors to standard lime Monday morning
and the Lentz Table Co. will also
adopt standard time on the same
morning. Their whistle will blow at
6:30 in thci morning to commence
work; at 12 for dinner, at 1 to com
mence the afternoon work, and at
5:40 every evening except Saturday,
when they will quit at 4:40.
Nearly
every cne in town is in favor of the
movement, which will do away with
tixe nuisance of trying to go by two
kinds of time. It may seem a little
odd at first, but If all will just set
their watches and clocks at standard
time next Monday morning, in a few
days they will not know the difference
except that all will be well pleased
with knowing that we are up-to-date
with bur neighbors in the matter of
all using one common time.

saying that young people needed to

development of his subject, “The

Bible comes from the Greek word,
“Biblus,” which means the book, not
any word or any book, but the word.

The Bible is a gem of literary pro

he be caston a desert island with but

to be the Bible. The Bible is a splen

of 66 volumes in which is revealed the

apple Ga* A Electric Co., was in town
last weeic and announced that the com
pany was preparing to make several
Improvements this season which would
make a great Improvement in their
service. Among other things which
are contemplated is the changing of
their transformer station here to the
south side of the river and putting it
into a better building and *the install
ation of an extra transformer for use
in case anything happens to the pres
ent apparatus. Tbe company is also
putting slash-boards on their dam
which will give them additional bead
and better power, which he thinks will
enable them to make their sea vice en
tirely satisfactory to all their custom
ers.
Dr. and Mrs. Sheffield wish to
thank the citizens of Nashville for the
kind, social manner in which they
have been entertained since tbeir ad
vent to this town, and it is with regret
that they take their leave. They do
not go for lack of friends or prsc ice,
however, as tLe doctor was doing
well in this place; but tbe reason of
their going is to be near their rela
tives. The coming electric road *111

passing by tbe doctor's old b >me
where bis parents reside; hence help
ing him to taxe care of them tbr- ugh
tbeir illness in their declining years.
Mrs. Sheffield further adds that «he
will be happy to entertain all of her
lady friends who will call on her at
her home on South Jefferson street,
Hastings.

a brilliant son who lad just returned from

He suggested putting a weight on
the cow’s lack. The cow kicked the* weight
off and they then struck upon the plan of ty

The old cow (dunged and pawed until tbe old
parson became frightened and called 'cut the
rope.' The son cut the rope that tied the cow to
the stable. Out of the door she plunged, the
exasperated |rai»on on her hack with his feet
tied togelhrr. He rode by bister Brown's, who
came rushing nut calling. .'Parson, where arc

A LARGE CONTRACT.
When Von W. Furnlss, the enter
prising druggist, first offered a 50
cent package of Dr. Howard’s specific
for the cure of constipation and dys
pepsia at half price, and guaran
teed to return the money if it did not
cure, he thought it probable from his
experience with other medicines for
these diseases, that he would have a
good many packages returned. But
although he has sold hundreds of bot
tles, not one has been brought back.
This is so surprising that he has
taken the contract to introduce Dr.
Howard’s specific in at least half the
homes In Nashville, and to do that
he will continue his special half price
introductory offer.
Von W. Furnlss wants every per
son in Nashville who has has consti
pation, dyspepsia, headaches, or liver

him 25 cents by mall and get 60 doses

Countless millions of salmon still es
cape the nets and traps and press up
the rivers to spawn and die. Nature

methods. Of these myriads of fish
none seems to return to the sea again
after spawning. "If evidence of this
be required." says a writer, "a walk
along the shores of a lake or tbe river

the unbeliever, since the sight of the
dead salmon and the awful smell aris

night that there must be already mil
lions of fish Ln the lake. Over one shal

less thousands. As they forced their
way up. with fins and tails out of wa

drew quietly and there was no show
of a clash. In Kansas City, Kan., it
is said the negroes will test the case
in the courts. The Kansas legislature
last winter passed an act separating
the races In the Kansas City school, a
direct result of agitation following the
murder of a white boy by a negro pu
pil. Bonds were voted to build a
school for the negroes, and pending
the erection of the structure, the
board of education planned to have
two sessions daily at the white school,
in the morning for the white children
and the session in the afternoon for
the negroes. 'Rhe negroes objected,
preferring to sit with the whites. At
Bonner Springs tbe school board ar
ranged separate rooms for the whites
and negroes, but to this the negroes
objected, protesting that they should
occupy rooms simultaneously with the
white children.

“An old hors* that has stood down

every morning at the same minute he
drives around the corner and brings
Prince—yes. that's bls name—to a
standstill in front of the office, and
Prince stay* there and enjoys him

"Do you know, that old quadruped
has made more friends in tbe week he
has been out there than some men
make in a whole lifetime? He has hii
own special way of looklng'at you out
of the corner of his big soft eyes.
There is not a messenger boy that
comes out ot the office across the way
who does not stop to pet him or tickle
his ribs as he trots past I really be
lieve the old fellow knows each one
personally.
"The first morning he stood out
there he saved a little child from be
ing maimed for life. You know the old
Italian that keeps the street stand?
It was hhi baby. She had crawled out
between the horses into the road, and
her hands were on the car tracks when
the cable gong sounded. I thought the
dirty little fists would certainly be
mangled, when all at once old Prince
stretched out his neck, grabbed the
edge of her petticoats in his teeth and
pulled her back—just in time. And
tbe Italian—it was a sight to see him
—weeping, laughing, slapping the old
horse on the nose and feeding him
with gum drops until he refused any
more. That little affair made Prince
the hero of the block.
"Whenever another
horse was
brought up facing him I let business
•go bragh* until the affair was over.
One day a little thoroughbred trotted
up. She was hitched to a dinky high
cart with tbe most ultra appointments.
Old Prince did not pay any attention
to the frills, but he thought that the
little horse should be 'called oil’ So
he whinnied softly, as he reached out
his nose and rubbed it on one side
of her sleek neck. Little Thorough
bred gave a squeal and a prance and
did her best to bite him. Prince was
above taking a snub, and after a mo
ment's reflection and nodding of his
head, he tried kissing her on the other
side of the neck. This ume he nearly
got his nose snapped off. But Prince
didn't give In an inch, and in five min
utes the two were as chummy as you
please. I like a man or a horse that
can stick to a thing in spite of snubs.
"There is a« woolly old dog that
waddles along every morning and lies
down facing him. and you have only
to watch the eloquent tail of the one
and tbe expressive ears of the other
to know that there is an animated con
versation going on. Once the dog
'crawled into the box of oats which
Prince was slowly consuming. At first
he made no sign, but when hunger be
came too much fog him he put his
hoof down—very gently—on the tall
which was projecting over the edge
of the box. The box was immediately
vacated.
"I think the old fellow pays most
attention to people. No one ever
stands beside him at tbe curb with
out getting a long, steady look out of
the side of his eye. And his powers
of discrimination would do credit to
you or me. For Instance, he never
takes any notice of old Skinflint, who
waits beside him every night in the
week for his car. But once, when an
exceptionally pretty girl and her tall
escort were waiting there. Prince, af
ter his usual surver. moved his noz
zle slowly around and caressed the
girl's cheek with the daintiest of
touches. She gave a little scream,
and then, seeing what had happened,
she laughed. The young fellow whls•pered something in her ear. and she
blushed. I suppose he said:

suppose it was over that reaj estate

around to look at him. All at once
Prince, wbo had been rolling his eye
and twitching bis ears in meditation,

stick bls nose into Smith's pocket.

Lansing, Mich., Sept. 14.—Approxi
mately 8X1,000,000 is paid annually by
the people of this state for the support
of township, city, county and state
government; thus It follows that each
person in Michigan, man. woman and
child pays yearly 815 toward this great
funu. These facts are gleaned from
the annual report of the state tax com
mission. which has just recently been
given out for publication. This sum
Includes tax^s, llcensas and other forms
of revenue which the legislature may
see fit to collect from residents of the
commonwealth.
These figures are
somewhat startling, as they mean a
levy of nearly 815 per capita for the en
tire population of the state, including
men. women and children. Of the
total of 833.000.000, the commission
states that 829,700,GOO is paid as a di
rect tax on propertly, the amount
raised by indirect tax being >3,300.000.
The state received from all license fees
during the year, 82.634.131, and from
Inheritance taxes 8181,769. Deer 11censes brought a total of 87.204, and
the Insurance companies’ taxes and
fees nearly >400,000. The franchise fees
collected by the secretary of state from,
corporations doing business under the
laws of the state amounted to 850.569.
Telephone and telegraph companies
paid a total of 865,150 of taxes, based
on gross earnings at the rate of three
per cent on the business derived with
in the state. On an ad valorem taxis
the railroads paid a tax of 83.756.149, as
against 81.483,000 in 1902. when the
tax waz computed by specific levy on
gross earnings.
George A. Prescott is experiencing
the thrilling feeling which one feels
when boomed tor public office. An
eastern Michigan solon tells of his rea

be the United States senator from
Michigan to occupy Senator Alger's
shoes. Thia recital was heard at Mr.
Kelley's feast: “Senator Alger won t

he doesn’t, Warner must name his suc

THE GERMAN DRESSMAKER
The Thing That Greatly Surprised

A young woman author recently
hired a German aress.maker to do some
work for her. The German came to
the apartment dally, and after a con
sultation or a fitting the writer would
leave to go about her own business.
"I couid see that she was trying to
place me,” said tLe author, In telling
the story. “When she first came and
saw so many pictures and sketches
about the house she asked me If I
could palnL and I replied in the nega

“Then she looked around for a piano
and seeing none, asked If I could sing.
Again 1 told her no, and of course It
was quite evident that I knew nothing
about dressmaking.
"On her last day I decided to end her
suspense, so after a little friendly con
versation I informed her in vague but
Impressive terms that I wrote, men

If women were as kind to their hus

If fuel and provisions were laid in

If there were fewer silk and velvet

If there were fewer “please, dar

If wives and husbands would take
some pleasure as they go along, and
not degenerate into mere toiling

England alone: to Spain again, which
fell upon the colonists and destroyed
or deported them all; to France, which
took it from Spain; to the Knights of
Malta, who received it as a gift from
France; to a private company of ad
venturers. Then It was resumed pos

so that in 1720 it was uninhabited.
Then it became a no-man's land until
1727, when France took it again, and
presently sold it to a Danish company,
which sold it in turn to the king of
Denmark. In 1801 England took it
once more, gave it back to Denmark,
repented and took it away again in a

because there were more sheep by . nearly
100,000 on tbe Chicago market during tbe

the advisability of establishing a quar

there he saved a little child from be
ing maimed for life- You know the old
Italian that keeps the street stand?
It waa his baby. She had crawled out
between the horses into the road, and
her hand a were on the car tracks when
the cable gong sounded. I thought the
dirty little fists would certainly be
mangled, when all at once old Prince
stretched out his neck, grabbed the
edge of her petticoats in bls teeth and
pulled her back—just tn time. And
the Italian—it was a sight to see him
—weeping, laughing, slapping the old
horse on the nose aud feeding k*m
with gam drops until he refused any
more. That little affair mafie Prince
the hero of the block.
"Whenever another
horse was
brought up facing him I let business
■go bragh’ until the affair was over.
One day* a little thoroughbred trotted
up. She was hitched to a dinky high
cart with the most ultra appointments.
Old Prince did not pay any attention
to the frills, but he thought that the
little horse should be 'called on.’ So
he whinnied softly, as he reached out
his nose and rubbed It on one side
of her sleek neck. Little Thorough
bred gave a squeal and a prance and
did ber best to bite him. Prince was
above taking a snub, and after a mo
ment's reflection and nodding of his
head, be tried kissing her on the other
side of the neck. This time he nearly
got his nose snapped off. But Prince
didn't give in an inch, and in five min
utes the two were as chummy as you
please. I like a man or a horse that
can stick to a thing in spite of snubs.
“There Is a woolly old dog that
waddles along every morning and lies
down facing him. and 'you have only
to watch the eloquent tail of the one
and the expressive ears of the other
to know that there la an animated con
versation going on. Once the dog
crawled Into the box of oats which
Prince was slowly consuming. At first
he made no sign, but when hunger be
came too much fog him he put his
hoot down—very gently—on the tall
which was projecting over the edge
of the box. Tbe box was immediately
vacated.
“I think the old fellow pays most
attention to people. No one ever
stands beside him at tbe carb with
out getting a long, steady look out ot
the side of his eye. And his powers
of discrimination would do credit to
you or me. For Instance, he never
takes any notice of old Skinflint, who
waits beside nlm every night in the
week for his car. But once, when an
exceptionally pretty girl and her tall
escort were waiting there, Prince, af
ter his usual survey, moved his dozsle slowly around and caressed the
girl’s cheek with tbe daintiest of
touches. She gave a little- scream,
and then, seeing what had happened,
she laughed. The young fellow whis

The Nashville Entertainment Club
has completed all arrangements for
the season’s lecture course. The same
ladies are interested in this course
that gave us such a successful one last
winter. It was only accomplished by
hard and continuous work on their

actor in our town and by persistent
effort gave lhe best course Nashville
has ever had. After all bills were
paid they found a little sum to their

and three boys from six to teu years old,
were murdered in cold blood at their
borne near here Thursday. The toother
and daughter were assaulted and their
bodies brutally disfigured.
A baby
about two years old was the only one left
alive. Al! of them seemed to have been
murdered with some blunt Instrument,
their heads were crushed and their
throats cut with a knife or razor. The
girl and mother were killed in the bouse,
the boys were killed about 100 yards
away. Mr. Conditt was working in
the-rice fields. A negro boy about 12
years old was plowing in a field near
tbe house at the time of the killing and
heard the children screaming. He
saw a man running after a woman,
who was running around the house.
Being afraid to go to the Bouse, he
ran to a neighbor’s and told what he
had seen. The party informed, ran to
the place and found the five, members
of the family killed. Officers were In
formed at once and the entire county
is out in posse in search of tbe mur

of them. .

the stern face of the manager.
“Where did you post the mall last

"I put the package in the big box

“You’re sure of that, are you—

COTTON FROM FIRWOOD.
Interesting Process by Which This
New Feat in Mechanics Is
, Accomplished.
.
Cotton, which used to be born, ia now
being made from firwood which has
been freed from bark aud knots. The
fibers are broken up by a special ma
chine, and are then placed In a lead
lined copper cylinder having a capacity
of 100 cubic centimeters.
Into this
steam is introduced for ten hours by
means of a pipe In the bottom. At the
end of that time 60 cubic centimeters of
soda lye are poured in and boiled for 36
hours under a pressure of three atmos
pheres. Tbe material is then washed
and thoroughly crushed, after which if
is bleached and dried. The pure cellulose
thus obtained is treated in an autoclare
containing a mixture of line chloride,
hydrochloric acid, and nitric add. to
which a little castor oil. easelii% and
g^cerine are added. The fiber, after
being further reduced, is passed
through a weak solution of carbonate of
soda, and then between drying rollers.
The necessary firmness is given to the
thread by finally putting it in a bath of
dilute ammonia and then washing it
with cold water. The substance thus
made may be easily woven and dyed.
When the artificial product is compared
with the natural it is said to be difficult
to distinguish the difference, and it Is
so economically produced
to compete with the latter.

MEDICAL ETHICS AT BAR.
Th* Professional Bules as Against
the General Demands of
Public Safety.
A curious problem in medical ethics
la propounded By a London phyaician
and decided according to medical ethics
by the British Medical Journal. Thia
doctor has a patient who is a signalman
on a railway, and the doctor has dis
covered that the patient-haa heart dis

Fibern, 50 mile* west of here.
Ashley.—Lavernia Hobbs, aged 12
years, daughter of a farmer living near
here, has just completed a fast of 2$
earn a living. The phyaician thinks
that the professional rule that he must
tell no secrets of his patient forbids him
to disclose the facts to the railway com
pany. The Medical Journal, when ap
pealed to. decides that it does, and that
the physician's responsibility ceases
when he advises the patient to give up
the job.
But thia places the rule of medical
ethics above the rule of public safety,
and suggests that the law may ne re
quired to assert Its superiority. The
fact is that the law has already done
so, on subjects involving the principle
of this case. The fact that a patient
has a contagious disease is primarily
as much of a professional secret as that
he has heart disease. Yet the law in
every civilised country requires physi
cians to report every case of contagions
disease that involves a peril to the pub
lic. That is the principle that should
rule.
There is no Taw enacted to cover ex
actly this case, but the principle remains
that It is the duty of a physician, know

The poles may be kept from year

I
I think that we do not fully appre
ciate the very large amount of fertil
izer that goes to waste in the common
operation of the farm. The great
piles of old straw that used to be
burned up contained a great amount
of plant food and humus, of which our
[arms are beginning to feel the need.
Even now I find It hard to convince
.some of my neighbors that they are
'making a mistake in permitting their
marshes to be annually burned over,
writes an Iowa farmer, in the Farm
ers’ Review.
One ot these marshes
near me was this year covered with
a growth of rank grass xt least three
feel high.
Lt was mowed and the
grass permitted to lie in windrows till
it became dry. when it was set on fire.
That same grass could have’ been used
in composts or at least as a mulch, and
have played a very important part in
the work ot the farm.
The sun beating down on rhe herb
age takes out of it some of the ele
ments that are most needed in the
soil, especially the nitrogen. This Is
continually disappearing, and is not
replaced by nature except after very
long periods of time. Every scrap of
fertility that does not have to be sold
oft the farm should be retained on It.
It is tad enough to have to part with
the fertility, even when we are paid
for it; we certainly cannot afford to
let it slip away from us without be
ing paid for.
that was about a foot deep and six or
se ven feet square. This could be filled
with water from an underground pipe
leading from a tanlt on a hill, and
could be emptied into a tile drain by
removing a plug in the bottom. This
was done twice each week, and the
wallow disinfected with crude carbolic
acid.
The idea of a bath tub for hogs will
round ridiculous to some readers, but
we are sure that a little connideration
will convince the most prejudiced that
a clean place In which to wallow Is
fine for hog health.
Those who favor-the mud-bole say
that h is natural for the hog to cover
himsel/ with mud and water; and that
*hen a thing is natural it is not detri
mental to health. They tell us that
the hog is a non-sweating animal, and
that the only means he has of cool
ing hlms«lf is In the wallow: and if
the wallow is not provided he must
suffer from the heat
.
The argument looks well in print,
but wc hardly think it can stand in
vestigation. Admitting that It 1b nat
ural for the hog to wallow, does not
prove that he should wallow In a
germ-infested mud-hole to maintain
his health. The present-day hog is
the result of a great deal of cross
breeding. the object of which was to
change the shape and much of the
nature of the primitive hog. Our do
mesticated hog. declares the Farm,
Field and Fireside, would die if he
were placed in the haunts of the wild
hog. and expected to live as did the
primitive wild hog. because he has
been bred away from the nature and
habits of the wild animal.
Though it is true that he needs wa
ter to cool his body, he needs, least
of all things, the filthy wallow «n
which breed all manner of germ ene
mies.
He needs water—pure, rlean
waler—to cool his body on the sum
mer afternoons. Give him the choice
of a dirty wallow or a trough filled
with clean water, and four times out
of five he will take the tatter. We
are sure that the cement wallow—
the bath-tub—like the one above de
scribed. will soon become one of the
fixtures of the up-to-date bog yard.

branches from early August to Sep

close to the surface of the soil, and
the beetles soon emerge and hibernate

New York by vessels manned by

John Scarveil, who has been for
several years in the employ of Glenn
H. Young, baa accepted a position as
manager of a hardware store at Dol
lar Bay, in the upper peninsula, and
leaves next Thursday, comrflencing
work op tbe Iflth. John is a good
wortnnsn snd a jolly fellow, and his
many friends in Nashville are sorry
to see him leaye town. Mrs. ScarvsU. who is superintendent of music
in the village schools, will remain
here until the dose ot the school year.
Next Sunday morning. Rev. C. W.
Fletcher will commence a series of
sermons al the Baptist chapel that
should be listened to by all. On that
date tbe subject will be “Life's Even
ing," and the talk will be especially
for old people. On Sunday morning
October 15, tbe sermon will be for the
children, the subject, “Childhood.”
In tbe evening of October 22, tbe sub
ject,’ “A Young Woman’s choice,”
for young women, and on the evening
of October 29, “The young man in his
place," for young .men. All are In
vited to bear these-sermons.
O. M. McLaughlin has purchased
lhe hardware stock ofGlenn H. Young.
He has taken possession and is now
invoicing preparatory to opening the
store for business Saturday. Mr.
Young, who Is a Nashville boy, has
made a decided success of the busi
ness and will be retained for the pres
ent by Mr. McLaughlin in the store.
While his many friends are sorry to
see him relinquish the ownership,
they will safely feel that it has passed
into competent hands. Mr. McLaugh
lin has long since established his rep
utation for business sagacity and it
can be an assured fact that whatever
be undertakes will be pushed to its
fullest capacity and tbe customers of
the hardware department will be as
courteously and honestly dealt with
as his customers of the clothing store
have enjoyed. He intends to stock
up on many of the lines.and give 'the
people of Nashville a first-class hard
ware store and it is our prediction
that be will succeed admirably.

LIFE AFTER DEATH.
At eight o’clock in the evening of this
same Friday. Medical Examiner Jarhouse, busily writing.
"Upon making a careful and complete
examination of the body of tbe man
named. Paul North, I find that a ball,
probably fired from a revolver of 32

“Well, that's a leading
but it wouldn't do to have it published
before it’s submitted. All I can say
at this point really is that I have no
doubt whatever that murder has been
committed."
Mr. Thomas fingered his watch chain.
"Not a word more?" he queried.
'T'U tell you what I’ll do. Thomas.'*
the medical examiner answered, after a
meditative turn up and down the halL
"You have kept a good many Importent
secrets when the work of the authorities
couldn't have been done without your
silence. I'll tell you who assisted in the
autopsy. You could interview him
without mentioning my name in the
matter;”
A broad smile Illumined the reporter's
face, and he presented the medical ex
aminer with a very comprehensive
wink.
"Dr. Francis Huntress Is the man,”
continued the examiner, confldertlally.
"He has an office where he lives, at No.

"I know him well." said Mr. Thomas,
as he parted from the doctor;^nd there

the friendly greeting accorded to him
at the wurgt-on's door.

"You are the moat extraordinary fel

"Some of the morgue people must have
told you I was called tn. No? WelL
never ralnd—we'll, assume you divined
it, as you have a hundred other matters
supposed to be the most profound of
secrets. But i'll tell you one thing, my
black-haired friend. This Is one of the
most curious and remarkable cases that
ever came to my attention!"
"You have no doubt it was a case of
murder?" questioned Mr. Thomas, busy
with his watch charm.
"I can find no other explanation. You
saw tbe wound; yoa noticed how the'
man lay? Now the bullet was a 32 calibeq pistol ball. It entered at an angle
of certainly to less than 20 degrees, and
went upwards and inwards in that di
rection. I don't know whether you ob
served any traces of powder on the
man’s clothing?"
"No.”
'They were there, nevertheless. And
that means that the pistol from which
the fatal shot was fired couldn't have
been held .more than three feel away.
At the same time we concluded It must
have been more than two. And this,
you see. effectually disposes of the the
ory of suicide."
"And now, doctor. I want to ask you
iwo or three questions. In the first
place, isn't Jt within the possibilities of
medical science to determine just how
long a man has been dead?"
"Anywhere within 24 or 36 hours,
probably yes.”
“With how much accuracy?”
"Well, possibly within an hour.”
"As close as that?”

physicians accept the proposition of an

FORMAL EXCHANGE OF PEACE of Massachusetts in state convention
Friday declared for a revision of the
TREATIES WILL OCCUR Al
Bpse>dy Termination of Hostility
Action Found in Agreement With
Washington. OcL lo.—The treaty of
peace between Russia and Japan will
become effective upon its approval,
without waiting the formal -exchange
of ratifications at Washington. This In
formation was imparted at the Japa
nese legation Monday. This course has
been decided upon that the speediest
possible termination of the war may
be had. The treaty. It is understood,
has passed through the necessary pre
liminary stages of approval In each
country and .is now before the respect
ive emperors of Japan and Russia for
the royal signature. As soon as It has
been signed this fact will be communi
. cated by cable to the state department
at Washington and the Washington
government will apprise each emperor
of the act of the other. With this ac
complished the war will be at an end.
The formal exchange of ratifications
will be carried out in Washington as
soon thereafter as the signed treaties
reach here. This formal exchange will
be accomplished by the drawing up and
signing of a protocol or memorandum
of exchange by special plenipotentiar
ies commissioned for that purpose. Be
sides signing the protocol or memor
andum treaty which the emperor of
Russia has signed will be delivered to
the Japanese plenipotentiary for trans
mission to Japan, and the copy.slgned
by the emperor of Japan likewise will
be delivered for transfer to St. Peters
burg. This function, according to pres
ent Intentions, will be devoid of all
formality. As yet the special plenlpo■ tentiarios have not been commissioned,
and no arrangements have been made
for the exchange.
Precedent is found for the telegraph
ic exchange of ratifications In the man
ner In which the last treaty between
the United States and China was made
operative.

To settle the bills long due.

Tbe bull frog sings no more all day,

And now deep down is stowed awsy
Beneath some friendly chunk.
There to wait—be knows,

When the south wind blows away the snows
And tbe ice fields melt away.
From the north afar the wild goose wends its way,
With an instinct strange but true,
And he sings aloud his honk-y lay
As he cleaves ths ether blue.
“I’m bound for the land of sunny days,
Down by the southern seas;
Where woodland streams and sunlit bays
Are fanned by the salt sea breeze.”
And some day later when tbe time draws nigh
And winter’s race is won,
He towers aloft as be bids good bye.
Sings Ho! for the land of the midnight
And perched up high with a tearful eye
On a corn stalk brown and bare,
A potato bag site with a mournful sigh
As he shivers in the frosty air.

A NEW FINANCIAL ENTERPRISE*
Security Building and Loan Associa
tion Organized in Nashville
Under State Laws.
A new enterprise ha* been “tarted
In Nashville, and is preparing to
eommence business lo tbe near future.
It is tbe Security Building and Loan
Association, which is organized un
der the state laws and will be under
alate supervisee and will be regularly
insoected
by state officials.
The
articles of association were filed with
the Secretary of State and accepted

of capital stock authorized is 9100,000.
divided into one thousand shares of
• 100 each. Tbe directors pf tbe com
puny are H. SeUerlngton. O. J McQuistion. J. C- Furols*. W. J. Llebbaueer. H. C. ZuschnitL Dr F. F.
Shilling and Len W. Feigbner, .and
the officers am H. SeUerlngton, presi
dent; Len W Feighner, vice-oresidept;
O. J. McQuistlon, secretary; J. C.
Furniss, treasurer.
Tbe object of tbe association, as
■■rt forth in its constitution, is tbe
building and improving of homes,
removing incumbrances therefrom,
loaning money to its members, and
conducting such' other business as is
or may be legalized by the building
and loan laws of Michigan. Deposits
in building and loan associations are
exempt by slate law from all taxation,
which will enable the association to
pay 4 per cent interest on stock, net,
payable semi-annually., and tbe by
laws of the association provide fur
ther that any depositor can withdraw
bls money at smy time on giving
thirty days notice.
Borrowers who remain in tbe asso
ciation until the maturity of their
stock can obtain loans at a lower
rate of interest than a loan could be
obtained from a bank or an individ
ual; and at the same time the loan
may be repaid in small weekly install
ments. This will be a good thing for
the people of the village, as It will
enable many of nur people who do
not now own homes to buy a lot and
build themselves a home and pay for
it with the same money which they are
now paying out for rent
The first series of stock will be
started about November first, so that
all who are Intere-ted should make
the fact known before that lime in
order to get in before the series
closes; otherwise they will have to
wait until another series is opened, at
a later date
It is anticipated that the new asso
ciation will be of material benefit to
everybody io Nashville, as it will
undoubtedly be of great assistance in
the building up of the towc. .-There
is absolutely no difference, and under
tbe laws of the stale there can be do

POTATOES.
Early in the season conditions were
very unfavorable for potatoes. On
low ground the seed rotted badly, so
that the stand was poor. Whaf was

months at a time when damage is fre

the crop has been badly affected by
blight. Correspondents all over tbe

potatoes are being damaged oy blight

worth digging. Inasmuch as this is
one of tbe best of our industries, it

This medicine is a recent discovery
for the cure of all diseases of tbe
stomach and bowels, it not only
gives quick relief, but it makes per
manent cures.
Dr. Howard’s specific has been so
remarkably successful in curing con

troubles, that Mr. Furniss is willing
lo return the price paid in every case
where it does not give relief.
The old-fashioned idea of dosing
with mineral walers, cathartic pills or

CARD OF THANKS.
Lansing, Mich.. Oot 9.—Tbe new ju
venile court law, which was enacted
by the last legislature, is now before
the supreme court of the state, with its
validity at stake. At the conclusion of
the hearing in Detroit on the order to
show cause why Police Justice Stein
should not be mandamused to conduct
examinations Into juvenile complaints,
the ^circuit judges announced that the
writ had been issued. The.btaring be
fore the full bench of the Wayne cir
cuit court wait on two separate actions.
Contending that the law is constitu
tional, Prosecuting Attorney Hunt pe
titioned the circuit court to appoint
one of their number to head juvenile
complaints, as called for by the new
law. The second action was brought
by Police Commissioner Whelan,
through his attorney, Fred H. Warren,
to secure a writ of mandamus to com
pel Police Justice Stein to entertain
juvenile complaints. Prosecutor Hunt
argued that a great deal of the con
fusion resulting from the passage of
the new law Is due to the attempt to
place Juvenile offenders in the same
category with criminals. The new law,
he argued, is not a criminal, but a re
formatory law. Mr. Warren contended
that tbe law is Inconsistent and un
constitutional.

GRAND RAPIDS DIVISION
• A curious problem In medical ethic*
is propounded by a London physician
and decided according to medical ethics
by the British Medical Journal. This
doctor has a patient who is a signalman
on a railway, and the doctor has dis
covered that the patient has heart dis
ease. Obviously that ailment com
prises the possibility of a stroke just
when tbe man’s services may be needed
to prevent disaster.
The physician advises hipi to quit ths
place, but the latter decline* to do so,
for fear be may find no other way to
earn a living. The physician thinks
that tbe professional rule that he must
tell ho secrets of bls patient forbids him
to disclose the facts to the railway com
pany. The Medical Journal, when ap
pealed to, decides that it does, and that
the physician's responsibility ceases
when he advises the patient to give up
ths job:
But this places the rule of medical
ethics above the rule of public safety,
and suggests that the law may oe re
quired to assert its superiority. The
fact is that the law has already done
so, on subject* involving the principle
of this case. The fact that a padent
has a contagious disease is primarily
as much of a professional secret as that
he has heart disease. Yet the Irfw in
every civilized country requires physi Grand Rapids

disease that involves a peril to the pub

It Is bard to realize the enormous
extent of the grain crop of the United
States when it is put in mere figures,
and it may be enlightening to make
some comparisons to assist tbe im

railways say that If their share of the
. present grain crop had to be moved at
ooce it would require about 1,500,000
car*. These cars with the require*)
locomotives would occupy practically
every foot of four parallel tracks run

Of course a great deal of tbe present
crop will not be moved in cars. Some
of it ia consumed on tbe farms where
it is raised; some of it Is hauled in

is said to amount lo about one-third
of tbe total crop. Recent year* have
enabled the farmer* to put money Id

trlotiam has been compared to that of
Boule de Sulf in Guy de Maupaaaant'a
story. She waa arrested recently for
having robbed a German merchant of
£88. To the magistrate she made a
strange declaration. She said that her
main object In life waa to decoy Ger
mane and to rob them. She went
about with them to cafes and music
halls, and while affecting to be very
much Interested in them she picked
their pockets. In this way she had
^annexed for several years past orer
.£700. She had picked the pockets of
exactly €7 Germans, and she was proud
of It. As her reason for thus acting, the
woman said that In 1870 her family in
Normandy Lad been completely ruined
by German invaders, who stole her
father's cattle, pigs, fowls and even
Plata. She waa then obliged to go out
as a dairymaid, but not being accus
tomed to servitude she came to Parts,
and began waylaying and robbing Ger
mans. The magistrate listened to this
tale calmly. It made no impression on
him, tor he sent tbe new Boule de Sulf
back to the depot, there to await trial.

The trial of Deputy Sheriff Ed.
Cole, charged with the murder of Chas.

on in the circuit court at Charlotte.
On the night of the crime Cole ac
companied by Tib Sprlngett and John
Rupe went to Edwins’ home to arrest
Edwins and Laura Butler Youngs on
a criminal charge. Cole demanded
entrance which was denied him and it
is alleged that foilowidg Edwins’ re
fusal the officer smashed in a window
end a deadly struggle ensued. Two
charges from Cole’s gun lodged in
Edwins’ abdomen and he died tho
next day. Laura Youngs will be the
star witness for the prosecution while

C. M. Welch, the ex-Methodist min
ister, will pass three more months, at

whom the circuit court of Kent county
convicted him of being the father, and
for which offense he had about con
cluded a six-months’ sentence In the
county jail of that county, and must
go back to jail. This time it may not
be so easy, however, as there is a big
full stone yard staring him in the
face now. and unless be can furnish a
bond of 8100 he will be compelled to
try hie “ versatality” at stone-break
ing. When Welch was first convicted
Prosecutor Brown promised he would
keep him in jail for a longer time
than his first sentence, and evidently
he means to keep hie promise.

discussed. It is evident that if the
dam is not put back the pipes will
have to be covered in order to protect
them from freezing and from being
damaged by the high water next
spring, and M otDer parties are con
sidering the repairing of the dam it
wm decided that the villsgeeould af
ford to psy 825 toward repairing it,
which would about cover the exppose
ot covering the pipes. An ordinance
relative to the abatement of aoisanoes
wm considered but not definitely, m
the members wished more light upon
the subject before taking action. Tbe
ordinance m outlined will give the
village the right to declare unsafe
buildings nuisances and give them the
right to tear them down.

A serious runaway occurred yester

New York, Oct 16.—Five lives are
known to have been lost and more than
M persons injured, one of them fatal
ly, on the Cunard Line steamer
Campania last Wednesday when a
wave rolled over the steamer
and swept across a deck thick with
steerage passengers. So sudden was the
soming of the disaster and sp great the
confusion which attended and followed
<1 that even the officers of the steam
er themselves were unable Saturday
upoa the vessel’s arrival here to esti
mate the.full extent of the tragedy. It
Is possible that tbe five persons known
to be missing from the steerage may not
constitute the full number of dead.
John Graham, of Milwaukee, was one
of the passengers washed overboard and
Jost. He was traveling in the steerage.
The others who are known to have lost
their lives were two Irish girls and two
other women. When the Campania
reached quarantine ten of the injured
passengers were still in the ship's hos
pital, some of them seriously hurt, and
a score of others were nursing minor in-
Comes Without Warning.
The Campania was plowing along un
der full headway last Wednesday after
noon. A heavy quartering sea was run
ning. but the weather conditions were
tar from unpleasant and the*big boat's
decks were crowded with passengers.
The steerage deck was covered with

saddenly the big steamer lurched to port
and scooped up an enormous sea. The
wave boarded the steamer about mid
ships on the port side and swept clear
across the steerage deck, completely fill

deck' above and carrying everything
with It. The steamer's side was buried
so deep that the passengers on the deck
above the steerage were submerged to
their waists as the immense volume of
water rolled aft and then surged for
ward. All the cabin passengers on the
wpper deck succeeded in clinging to
supports while the waters surged around
thus, and were saved, but the unfortsMtes on the steerage deck found

Townsend’s Stand on Rates.
Mr. Charles Townsend, the Michigan
statesman at Washington, stands in the
limelight because of his position on the
rate regulation problem. He still bolds
the same views as during the last session
of congress, according to a recent dis
patch from Washington. He is quoted
with the following statement in an in
terview: "I have seen nothing that has
tended to change my views on this ques
tion. All that is proposed by our bill
for railroad rate regulation, is that when
a rate or regulation, whether in the form
of discrimination between individuals
or between places and products or in the
charge on refrigerator cars, is made the
subject of complaint there should be an
impartial tribunal to hear tbe testimony
and make a finding in accordance with
that provision which says the rates must
be just and reasonable. We had but one
idea in framing that bill, and that was to
correct an omission in the original law
for the regulation of railroads."

for some years afterward I was al

My master, whose first name was
Frank, took me to live tn a mansion.
I was given a kennel all to myself
and was frequently brought Into the
house to show off when my .master s
family was honored with fashionable
guests.
One morning I was tucked under my
master's arm and taken to a splendid
office downtown, where I was allowed
the freedom of the suite until late in
tbe afternoon.
Then Frank pulled
down the lid of his desk, picked me
up and said:
"Well. Mttle chap. I
guess we're both hungry, so we'll try
a little cafe that the boys have been
talking so much about lately.”
We passed through crowded streets
that were all new to me. under an im
mense steel structure where the roar
of the elevated trains made me trem
ble with fright, into a narrow little
thoroughfare where men were busy
wheeling crates of fruit and vegeta
bles. which were piled high on the
sidewalk, into the little stores pre
paratory to closing for the day. Final
ly we came to a narrow flight of stairs,
up which we climbed, and entered a
small room where throngs of people
were busy eating the things that were
served to them by warm and tiredlooking young women.
The room was crowded, but Frank
finally found a vacant chair and, seat

A tenant is not required to give any

and if it hadn't been for you I would
never have had the nerve to’ speak.”
After that events traveled rapidly.
I was soon able to follow my master
as he took his nightly walks to where
Miss Frances lived.
Whetner it was for a stroll through
the park, , a game of tennis or a quiet
evening on the veranda, I was always
there, and although I am no eaves

occasions that made me suspicious
that there was something stronger
than friendship between these two.
Finally It came. One evening as 1

A general covenant to renew, does
not imply tbe right to a perpetual re

landlord cannot be compelled to re

tbe words were "this lease to be re

a Pennsylvania oourt held that it Im

to the North household at Swampscott.
Other newspaper duties so far en

was not until evening that he took the

which appeared almost deserted.

Stackhouse sighed and shook his head
Wearily. His dry lips murmured:
"Nothing.”
He evidently understood that there
was still a respite, but it did not seem to
comfort him. His eye suddenly fell upon
the paper on which he had been recently
writing. He furtively seised it In his
hand and crumpled It.
The Inspector, who observed this. Im

to Stackhouse’s actions, and. pretendlac to turn toward Jobson, stated his
’purpose in calling.
Stackhouse, falling Into tbe trap,
seized the opportunity to tear the writ

waste basket.
"May I be shot!” was the iApector’s
inward ejaculation, “if that basket goes
out of my sight till 1 have gathered up

he held in his hand.Tt’s altogether probable, Mr. Stack

A NIGHT EXPEBIENCE
WE KNOW
“Or think we dO”
What a good stove is
Health of Fowls.
Feeding regulates the number of e^ga
produced and also the health of the
fowls. More harm is done by overfeed
ing than by underfeeding. Never feed
soft food if It can be avoided. The giz
zard Is Intended for grinding the food,
and to deprive it of that function is to
induce disease. There are some foods,
however, that must be mdsten«xl, but
the hard foods should be preferred, giv
ing soft foods not oftener than once
every other day.
If poultry must be fattened for market
there is no better food than corn, but
for laying hens corn is too heating in
summer, contains an insufficient supply
of mineral matter, and is not well sup
plied with protein. Corn and wheat
should be a portion of the winter ration,
as the bodies of the fowls must then
be kept warm. In the summer season a
less concentrated ration Is more suita
ble. Some of the beet hard foods that
may be given dally with corn are cow
peas soy beans, or cheap white beans,
the former being quickly, easily, and
cheaply grown, and may be fed at all
seasons. A morning food of equal parts
of wheat and cow-peas, with corn and
cow-peas at night, will prove satisfac
tory. The next day, for the morning
meal, use one-half pound of clover hay,
but fine, and scalded the night before.
To this add one-half pound of bran, pnehalf pound of ground meat, and one-half
pound of dried ground blood, using
enough corn meal to make the mess
somewhat dry. At night give mixed
corn and wheat. Keep a box of mica grit,
and also of coarse ground bone, always
within reach.
How much to feed is a problem. No
two hens, says the Prairie Farmer, eat
the same quantity, nor will a flock eat
the same amount every day. No fixed
quantity can be*suggested, as only ob
servation can guide the poultryman.
Always scatter the whole food, feeding
the soft food in a trough, carefully re
moving all that Is not eaten. Do not
leave food constantly before fowls. The
liability is that overfeeding will make
the laying hens too fat. Between meals
a gill of millet seed, scattered in litter,
will keep them busy. It is estimated that
one quart of corn per day. for a dozen
fowls, or its equivalent, is the proper av
erage allowance.
To know when a hen Is too fat weigh
the hens at least once a week, if they
have lost in weight give more food; if

colorings are accurately reproduced in this book by the aid of photography, en-,

stalk is growing up faster than the
boy can climb down. Three men have
undertaken to cut the stalk down with

Most of the counties receive more
primary school money each year,
under our present system of taxation,
than they pay to the state in any year.
Tbe distribution of school moneys In
May was toe same in amount as that
in May of laat year, and November
distribution will be practically the
same as last November. With the
counties of Houghton and Marquette
omitted the primary money distributed
to tbe other 21 counties of that north
ern group in two years exceeds the
total of state taxes levied against
them in the two years; and the
amount assessed against tbe rail
roads, which toe state expects to
collect in full and distribute to the
counties, is more? than double tbe
amount that toe companies have paid,
and would largely exceed toe entire
amount of state taxes levied in tbe
entire state.

Prosecutor Hooper. Tbe arrest is
toe outcome of testimony given by

Parin, which was in progress before
tbe justice at toe time,' which testi
mony was a fiat contradiction of an
affidavit previously made by him be
fore a Bellevue justice of toe peace,
and which was in part tbe basis of
Parin's arrest. Parin is charged
with criminal assault on a 12-year-old
girl, whose parents lived in Bellevue

that be bad witnessed the incident.

to the announcement that toe Pennsyl
vania Railroad company has placed
orders for fifteen hundred pressed
steel passenger coaches. Involving an
expenditure of over 37,000,000. It
marks toe first step by toe railroads
of the country toward abolishing
wooden passenger oars. The danger
from coaches of toe pattern In com
mon use bas long been apparent. In
toe event of wreck loss of life has
usually been attributed to toe ease
with which they were crushed and
the conflagration which generally fol

giving greater rapidity and climinat

peril from fire will also be reduced to
a minimum.

Lloyd's Weekly.
It appears from this return that In
the matter of post cards the German

than 1.161,000,000 posted there during
Even the United States, whose popu
lation is about one-half tn excess of
770,500,000 of those missives. Great
Britain comes next with 613,000.000.
Japan, which previously used next to
Germany most post cards, is now
fourth on the list with 487,500,000.
The inhabitants of Germany alone,
therefore, are now availing themselves
of nearly as many post cards as the
United States and Japan together. Oth
er countries are greatly left behind in
the race; not one of them reaches the
number of 300,000,000.
As to letters, however, the United
States is far ahead of all other coun

Great Britain follows in its wake with
2,597,000,000, and then Germany with

Lansing, Mich.. Oct. 30.—Expenses
of the state of Michigan and its insti
tutions during the past 16 years have
nearly trebled, despite the fact that the
population has Increased but 25 per
cent since 1889. A comparison of
state expenses in the year 1889 with
those of the year 1905 is a surprise to
many of the people of the state. In
1889 the population of Michigan, as
nearly as can be estimated from the
census of 1S84 and 1890, wis 2,000.
000. while Id 1905 the population was
2,500,000. an Increase of 25 per cent.
The total expenses of the state govern
ment in 1889 were >3,134,929, while In
1905 the expenses had grown to >8.287,991, an increase of 270 per cent. At
the present time, of course, there are
a great many new boards and commis

pair of startled brown eyes and looked
straight into Harry's interested blue

UNDER COVEH OF THBMNipiiT.
When the yellow state bouse dome
next fame into Reporter Thomas’
view that Sunday after the funeral, he
had gained a ileal of information about
the people al the North villa.
Quite naturally, one of the first
place* he sought was the quiet office of
Detective Lamm.
The door being.locked between thorn
and possible intruders. Mr. Thomas
began his disclosures.
“At the present time. Lamm." he
Mid. giving the office chair’s twirl be
fore sitting down in it. "there are two
things which strike me as peculiar.
There are two men in this caw who
naturally come under suspicion—one (
of them because he ba* no history; ;
th»- other because bls history is pe-I
cullar."
"And the man with no history Is*"
"Thornton Stackhouse. You may or
may not be aware of the fact that
until he appeared in Boston ten years
ago. be wan unknown to anybody In
these yarlK. and that of his earlier
life' there are only extant to-day the
vagueAt and most conflicting rumor*.
He never refers to anything in his life
more than ten years old. So. as I say. ■
he has no history."
"Uniha!” said Lamm: "as you say.
1 may or may not hare been aware ot
the fact Well. then, as to the other
. man whose history Is peculiar?”
"1 referred. 1-arunu tn Mr. Richard
Fetrldge. the Apollo Belvidere of
Stale street the ideal lady killer, the
man whose personal appearance Is the
principal thing about him which
would at once strike an observer."
"And why does thia man begin to
appear suspicions to you?''
"Because I can't exactly understand
hts relation* to the North family, nor'
bir motives in his relations t<> them '
"Tell me what you know and I'll
try tn help you.”
"From what people down at the
shore gossip. It appears that Ketridge1

the elder daughter and began to gc
to the house a good deal People will
talk, yon know, and people said that
Fetridgr was dead in love with th?
girl, and probably might have mar-1
rled her but for old man North's op
position.”
"Ah’." Mr. Lamm lit a new cigar
"Didn’t like (he young-fellow, eh?”
"May have liked him well enough,
but didn’t want a man without money
for a sen-in-law." rejoined Thomas.
"But Mario# wa* not his own daugh
ter?”
"No. But he. adopted her when sh<
was a year old. and he had no ex pec- [
tatlon.of having n child of his own;
and North seemed to think a* much
of her after Stella came as bqfon* Ol

.
■wa* his anxiety to have Marion well
married. At all events, the old man
turned the cold shoulder to Fetridge,
who wa* only a struggling lawyer, with
nothing but his wit* to depend on tor
a living. His visit* to the house sud
denly stopped.
About two months
after he ceased to call at th* place,
Marlon North became Marion Stack
house."
"There was plenty of gossip about
that event at Swamp*cott, I'll be
bound." was the detective's comment
"Of course. Everybody said ahe mar
ried Stackhouse tor money, although
she was In love with the other fellow.
Some people go so far ss to say that
Marion and Fetridge had some lovers'
quarrel, and *o separated Other peo
ple, with whom Marlon 1* no favorite,

woman, being one of the cool and cal

least expecting to gel much of any
thing.- But in nine months he came
home, to everybody's surprise, himself
included, a millionaire.'*
"Exactly; well?”
"Well, he began to feel drawn to
ward the North* again. This time the
old man was very glad to have him on
good terms with the family. The al
mighty dollar, yoy know. 1 don't mean
to slur a dead man's memory, but Paul
North was a disciple of Mammon, if
ever there was one In the world. The
question in everybody's mouth Is. how
did Stackhouse attain his extraor
dinary influence over Paul North? 1
attribute it to his cunning catering to
the old man's strongest passion—
avarice. But not to digreap. Fetrldge
visited the house regularly for a
month or two. and it was gossiped
down at the shore that the Apollo had
turned his attention to Mira Stella I
am not at all certain as to the correct
ness of that assumption myself,
Lamm."
"He may have something of bls former liking for Marion, you mean?”
Mr. La mm found an answering look
from his co-worker that made a spoken
response superfluous
"Just about a month ago. Lamm,
professional buslfires called Fetgidge
away from Boston. At any rate thal
was the explanation given by the
young lawyer, who appears to have en
tered Into quite intimate relations
with the flrm of North & Stackhouse
since he came bark from Australia
with hi* million'!. A Water street man
I paw at the funeral told me he be
lieved Fetrldge backed the concern,
and went away on some business con
nected with IL**
"Thai’s a mere guess." was the de
tective’s comment. “We must try to
pet at the real cause for this trip. You
do not imagine that any disagreement
with the family or the firm could have
been at the bottom of It?”
"There was no love lost between
Stackhouse and Fetridgr
The cause
of their mutual dislike may or may not
be hard to determine," said Thomas.
Ln a meaning tone; "but I'm very cer
tain, from what has taken place since
Mr North’s death—Fetridge did not
come back, you know, until two days
before—that he is on quite as good a
standing wi<n the family as ever. The
way in which he was trusted Id the
funeral arrangement* shows
that
much, plainly enough."
Mr. Lamm knocked the ashes from
his cigar, took a tarn up the room,
and coming back stopped in front of
Thoma* a* he sat Angering his watch
fob.
"There’s a mystery about this man
Fetridge.’ he said with emphasis.
“What you -have found out about him
simply confirms my feeling, quite war
ranted by my own knowledge of the
man and his circumstances, that Fet
ridge is a person to be very carefully
watched. Mark my words', young man.
Tbe day you And out what secret- Is
shared by Mar’on North-Stackhouse
and Richard Fetrldge will mark a
great advance in tbe progress of this
investigatliwL"
When dptecilve and reporter parted,
after some further interchange of
views, a certain line of policy was
agreed upon. Richard Fetridge was to
be kept constantly in sight. For the
goings and comings of the young law
yer in the city. Mr. Lamm declared
hir purpose to fully account, while Mr.
Thomas was to be the sentinel on duty
at Swampscott.
It happened thal he was passing the
North estate a little before nine
o’clock, and that just then the whim
seized him to enter the broad gateway
and have a look at the silent gloomy
mansion upon which the heavy pall of
death and In-fortune had visibly fallen.
There might be something stirring*—
some face, some light, some whispered
conversation, perhaps—or was it that
the sweet, sad face of North's or
phaned daughter still haunted him and
lured him out of his path?
At all events it would not necessi
tate much of a delay, for the abiding
place of Richard Fetridge was but a
short distance beyond. Al first sight
it did not seem possible that he should
gain anything by entering the grounds.
There was not even a light visible
from his standpoint on the driveway.
It might have been, thought Mr. Thom

H* wa* turning away, when hl* aL-
tontion wa* attracted by a noise clo**
by him a* of a window cautiously
opened, and immediately after he became aware of the flutter of white
skirts at a window in the second
story. Instinctively he drew back into
the bushes. Ths night was dark, but
the phosphorescent gleam that seems
to distinguish objects even in a darx
landscape, enabled him to see that
somebody had emerged from the win
dow and wa* coming down a trellis
work Into the garden. He heard the
snapping of the frail wood work, the
cracking of the Tine that dung to IL
and finally the precipitate, probably
unintentional, drop to tbe ground, and
the accompanying thud. But the flgore gathered itself up quickly—came
toward him -passed him—breathing
with audible excitement.
.
It was a figure veiled and closely I
muffled in a long cloak—tbe figure, of a ‘
woman.
’
■
"Is it one of the servants?" Thomas
asked himself, as he observed her hur- '
rled steps until the gate was reached. •
her backward glance, as if hesitating 1
for.a moment whether to go on or to
return, and then a quick, almost head
long flight directly, up the street in
the direction of Marblehead.
"She cannot be going to the town, at
any rate, whoever she may be," was
Mr. Thomas' mental comment.
"Is
she a thief or a servant? I shall make
It my business to know more about
the matter, at all events."
With a stealthy tread, quite as noise
less a* that of the cloaked figure hur
rying before him, Thomas followed
the woman, keeping her as well in
sight as tbe darkness would permit.
Regarding one point there could be
no doubt in the watcher’s mind. The
fugitive knew tbe road she was tak
ing, and followed it with a fixed purpoee. Mr. Thomas began to find It a
matter ot some difficulty to keep her
within view, especially as the thick
foliage made the darkness in some
places very black indeed. Suddenly
the woman left the road, and ran
across the lawn of a private estate.
Thomas hastened after her, expect
ing to see her enter at the servants*
door. But, to his surprise. she avoided
the house, and eventually came out
upon the rorks behind It, overlooking
the sea.
"Utterly absorbed in what she has
in mind." thought Thomas. "And go
ing straight toward the water, too!
I don't know much about this district,
but I think there is a little point of
rocke out yonder, just Ln the direction
the woman is taking. What If the
creature should have come to this lone
ly spot at night to end her life?"
Startled at the thought, the reporter
made haste, so that in case of emer
gency he might be ready to acj.
Nearer and nearer he approached
the unknown wanderer.
She stood
still at last upon a rock that overhung
the water that plashed monotonously
along the long beach.
Tne night wind swayed the folds of
her cloak as she remained there for a
moment like a statue.
Suddenly, with a quick motion."the
woman drew something from her
breast, and cast It waterwards with ill
her strength. The effort seemed to

face.
The weakness was only transient.
With nervous hands she pulled the
veil over her face and wrapped the
long cloak closely around her. Almost
headlong was the haste. with which
the figure turned toward the, road
again.
Looking neither to right nor left,
she passed very near the man who
had thus played the spy upon her
No affrighted fawn, thought Thomas,
could have run more fleetly, under the
spell of any dread whatsoever.
For an instant the reporter was in
a quandary. He desired to do two
things at once—to follow the fleeting
figure; to stop and investigate. He
stood up. looking after her.
"Queer thing!" he thought. "She. is
not going back to the North villa; at
least, not by the same route by which
we have come. She continues on the
road toward the Phillips Beach station.
Can It be that this woman has been
kept here in hiding, and is going
away? Perhaps. If 1 hurry. I can still
overtake her."
He stumbled hastily across the rocks
to the place where she had stood when
she threw the something, which bad

When the gong clashed al the Al
bany station at five the next morning,
among the passengers on that early
train—well-named "accommodation"—
was Mr. Thomss. In one hsnd he held
a copy of tho city edition of the morn
ing Globe. The other held a ticket to
Hartford.
It was 10:30 before the Charter Oak
city was reached. Mr. Thomas' first
efforts brought him Into content with
the Jehus of the Connecticut capital.
It was not at all a difficult matter to
find the whereabouts of the, solitary
hack driver who waited for a chance
passenger on the night trains; but Tom
Ludlow was asleep, and the reporter
found the time on his hands until noon.
“How are you. sir?" said Ludlow,
stretching himself and yawning as he
met the inquirer, who hsd been wait
ing for his awakening. Both were at
the door of tbe hotel stable. “A lady
fare? Yea. She's safe enough. Friend
of you re—relative?"
Mr. Thomas thereupon set forth,
with much earnestness, that he had
missed the young woman through an
unavoidable accident, that they were
going to a friend in Hartford, and that
he had been much disturbed over the
fact that sne bad been obliged to make
the journey at night alone.
"Naturally." he said, in closing, “I
am anxious enough about her. She's

"She's not been well at all recently.
Fact is. the journey was partly taken
on account of her health." answered
the reporter. “Bat 1 am greatly in

have shown her under these unfortun

The City hotel register bore the

Mr. Thomas looked blankly into the
clerk’s face. A very slight lifting of
the shoulders was the only comment
of that functionary.
The reporter caught its meaning.

and Is wandering about somewhere."
ho said. “Permit me to pay the bin
for her lodging." The clerk bowed.
“Should ahe chance to return while I
am away," be added, “you will detain
her. I am sure, courteously. but firmly.
How unfortunate! How very unfor
tunate!"
*
“It is barely poesible that the lady
may have been frightened away, if she
was in a state of nervous prostration
as you intimate." remarked the clerk,
more cordial in manner now that the
little account for tbe night's lodging
had l>een settled. “But. upon my word,
I cannot understand why. There were
only five or six other guests on the
floor, and they were quiet people, all
of them."
Once mere Mr. Thomas betook him
self to the neighborhood of the stable
and was fortanat* enough to find Lud
low there, making ready for his ac
customed call at tbe railway depot.
"Who were in the office when you
left the young lady last night?" he
asked. “Can you recollect?"
Ludlow pondered a moment
"J>t me see. The night clerk. The
night porter."
"Of course. Anybody else?"
"Why, yes. Stern was there—Officer
Stern. A policeman, you know. Meiely having a friendly chat with ths
clerk.”
“Do you think the lady noticed
him?"
"Mag be so—may be.
Anyhow,
Stern notlce.1 her. We all did. How
could we help It? Muffled up. nervous,
hurrying off to her room."
Quite certain that In this unexpected
apparition of a policeman he had found
the cause of the disappearance of the
fugitive. Thomas set oat once more on
his search.
The first trace of what might per
chance prove to be the fugitive was
found, half m hour later, at a little
restaurant much frequented by early
marketmen not far from the water
side.
"Yes. a woman like you describe
came here about four o'clock ' this
morning.” answered, to Thomas* in
quiries. the old man who kept the
place. "She took a cup of coffee and
a sandwich and asked me the road to
Windsor Locks. A very pleasantspoken female. She thanked me kind
ly through her veil when I showed her.
I told her she had bgtter sit down and
rets awhile: that the streets and roads
were no place for a woman at that
hour. Then. If you’M believe It. she
started up and ran away. She took
that street yonder toward Bast Hart
ford bridge. I had half a'mind to
cal] after h»r that she was going the
wrong way !f she wanted io get to
Windsor Ixxks. but she was out of
sight before a cat could wink, and I
couldn't leave the shop. Out ofz her
head, you tell me? Poor creeturf"
The street which the reporter now
followed led directly to the river and
the bridge separating the busy capital
from the quiet village of East Hart
ford.
A sudden thought as he approached
the stream sent a chill to his heart.
He stopped at the boat house to ask
If anybody bad been seen to pass dur
ing the night, but do watch had been

tainty for several moments. Thomas
decided to cross the river and seek for
developments tn the little town be

A milk wagon was jogging on to the
accompaniment of jingling cans, as

Into a chair at the table. Breakfast
hadn't been cleared away, as good luck
would have it. ‘Wife.’ says I. ‘give the
girl as good a warm meal as you've
got. Now you must eat and drink;
you must make out a good breakfast.*
I says, shaking my head at the girl, 'er
I shan't let you go. If you don't want
ua to look at you, all right; well keep
away. But whatever your errand, you
need strength to carry it out"
Thomas was listening with impatient
eagerness, but he could not forbear a
word of sincere thanks.
"Don’t mention It,*' said tbe farmer.
“Who could 'a done different? Well,
to make a long story short. I watched
her eat. but 1 must say a canary bird
might have made out a bigger break

and rest, wife and I. but she wouldn't
hear of It; and, after thanking ua both
like a lady, she set out Burnside way,
and Jim and I went over t' the city.
Poor girl! Ont of her head? Well,
well, tell you what: better get a team
somewhere.
She's far ahead, you
know.”
No better advice could be offered or
followed, in a few moments Thomas
was driving the fastest horse the vil
lage livery stable afforded, and clouds
of reddish dust marked his rapid prog
ress eastward.
He heard of tbe fugitive twice.
Once she had stopped to drink at a
wayside well, and a group of children
had watched ner as she rested a mo
ment and then went on. closely cloaked
and veiled, though the morning was
sultry.
Once she had stopped at a farmer’s
door for a glass of milk—for a sick
traveler tn the road above, she bad
said, in hurried explanation—bringing
the glass back after a moment with
faintly-spoken yet earneat thanks.

There’s a Hole yaller man ■
He's a quiet little feller
But he’s a holy terror
When he's mixed up in a scrap,
And when he's out for trouble
Is this little yaller chap.
For he's a red hot scrapper he is
This little yaller man
He’s a Johnny on the spot
This sprig of old Jhpan.
There’s a great big husky feller
He’s gobbled all tbe country
As far as yon can see:
And still he keeps areaohin*
And a reach in* out for more,
And be Dever’ll be contented
‘Till he’s reached from shore to shore.
One day be got to spoutin’
This Rusky o’er the sea.
Some air that had been heated
To a rather high degree.
Says be, I’m tbe Grand Panjandrum,
I’m king o’er all this sea
And o’er all this land,
I’m the big boss, Wbooperee!
■
Now sure as I’m a shoutin'
Il rather seems to me
*Bre long I’ll come a sailing
Across tbe yaller sea
And sil you yaller chaps
Sure I’ll drive you In the sea,
For near as I can figure
You ain’t no good to me.
Now this little yaller man
bo peacefully inclined.
And he never seemed to mind
What his neighbor was a doin’
If they’d only let him be,
A hoein’ rice and fisbin*
And a makin* poetree.
But this feller kepi a shoutin’
And a shoutin’ o’er the sea
So the Jap he could’nt aland it,
He got so nois-ee.
Says he “you husky feller,
I’ll give you to understand
I’m tired of all vour bluffin’
And I'm goin* to call your hand.
••Now see here Mr. Rusky,
I’ll tell you what you dew,
For 'cordin’ to my notion
You’ve took too big a chew.
So you’d better quit your shoutin'
* And a pawin’ up the sand
Or ton'll get some Jui Jit Su
That you don’t quite understand.*1
So one day they got to scrappin'

There’s that little chap, Oyama.
He’s a dandy, and
He walloped Kuropatkin
And he cbaaed him o'er tbe land,
Sure, he give it to him proper
And he whacked him mighty bad,
But the Rusky* was a winner
Id every race they had.
Now there’s Captain Rojestvensky,
Who sailed o’er all the seas
A lookin’ and a lookin’
And a watchin’ every breeze.
He got so tired a lookin’
And so shaky in his knees
That be couldu’t tell a fisher
From a little Japanese.
And still he kept a sillin’
A looking for tbe feller
That he didn’t want to see.
But the present emergency demand
ed prompt action. He could see plain
ly enough that it was not merely
fright that had caused her to lose con
sciousness. Nature had bestowed upon
her a face charming In its natural
round neau of outline and ready always
to break into dimpled smiles; but,
alas! horror and deprivation of sleep
and food had wrought a wicked change
He’d get up in the mornin’
Once more the seas to scan,
Oh! I wonder where that Jap is
That horrid bogy man.
And I wonder where bis trap Is.
I’ve been lookin’, lookin’, and
Where’s old Togo hidin’
I don’t quite understand.
And still be kept a sailin’
And a lookin’ more and more
I wonder how much farther is
That friendly Rusky shore.
One mornin' rather early
He sailed into tbe trap
He found it left wide open
But it shut up with a snap.
Oh! Mfrier Captain Ro Je
Your sailin’ days are o’er,
So bid goodby to Rusky land
You’ll never see it more.
“Oh! help me, uncle Peter,
Help me if you can,
Save me, uncle Peter,
From this horrid yaller man.
For this feller keeps a shoutin’
And I don’t know where to go,
But some how I’m a thinkin'
That I’ll have to go below.”
He shot him and he kicked him
And be chased him o’er the sea,
This great big husky feller

Said Captain Rojestvenaky
“Ob! where’d ye ’spose I can
Find some place to hide in
From this awful little man.*’
Now Mister Captain Ro Je
No more you’ll bunt the Jap:
No more you'll go a lookin' for
That little yaller chap.
For If you-’d chance to find him
Sure you'd a kitin’ be
To Davy Joneses locker
On the bottom of the sea.
Now here’s to you, Togo and Oyama,
For you’re a dandy pair
Abd you’re the chape to draw to
To win out pnywhere.
For when you ret to scrappin'
You never seem to care
If the guns they keep a poppin*
And a poppin’ everywhere.
Now here's to you,

May your country ever prosper
That little new Japan.
And that little sunny banner,
May it wave o’er all the land
From Pekin to Kamecbatka
From Kobe to Samarkand.

Miraculously Escapes Death.
Traverse City.—Crawling along un
der a wagon tongue, endeavoring to get
on the horses' backs and stop them
while falling timbers were frightening
them into running faster. A. T. Brdlgan managed to turn the team into a
brick building and stop them. A wagon
load of heavy sleigh stock fell on b!m
and his head was caught under the
tongue of the wagon.
Bystanders

man was crushed, but he crawled from
tbe wreck, uninjured except for a few

Lansing, Mich., Nov. 8.—Despite the
fact that tbe outward agitation for the
restitution of the Interchangeable
mileage book, which was in use in
Michigan prior to the time the state's
roads joined the Western Passenger
association, substituting the new sys
tem which travelers declare is incon
venient, has somewhat subsided, Gov.
Warner is not idle, and be is at present
seeking a method by which he can
compel the railways to bring buck the
ojd system. Meanwhile, the roads are
seeking a way to satisfy the traveling
men of the state without returning to
the old northerw mileage system, which
was put into effect when there was agi
tation in Michigan for a two-cent fare.
It Is claimed that the traveling men
promised the railroads to use their in
fluence to defeat a two-cent fare meas
ure, provided the companies would
give them an interchangeable mileage
book good on trains at a two-cent rate.
It is declared this agreement was re
sponsible for the northern mileage
book. But the traveling men failed to
stop the two-cent fare bill, which be
came a law. Subsequent to the pas
sage of the act the railroads decided
to adopt the Central Passenger asso
ciation mileage book. The latter is
not good on trains, and baggage Is
now checked only to Junctional points.
Traveling men are compelled to ex
change their mileage certificates for
tickets, and frequently where connec
tions are close they do not have the
time to do so and are compelled to pay
full fare.
Protect Against Hunting Act.
Protests against one of the deer
hunting laws enacted by tbe last legis
lature are coming in from sportsmen
in every part of the state and Grand
Rapids, from which town all things
audacious spring, announces that it
will have the Jaw tested. The act pro
vides that no person shall have In his
possession more than five days qfter
tbe closing of the season any part of
a deer. Hunters claim that it is unfair
and unreasonable that a man having
s piece of venison left at the expira
tion of five days after tbe closing of
the season should be obliged to throw
this Tension away. They contend that
so long as the deer was legally killed
and came Into their possession accord
ing to the requirements of the law.
they should be allowed to eat that ven
ison whenever they choose. It is the
belief that the legislators had no Idea
of making this law prohibitory upon
(he legitimate hunter, but was aimed
at the cold storage propoaitlon. The
law, however, does not mention cold
storage people, but Includes all peo
pie. A matter of confusion which may
result seriously to hunters who do not
study the Isw, Is that the deer season
opens November 10 this year accord
ing to tbe revised law. Several legis
lative correspondents have announced
the opening of the season as November
8, as formerly, but this Is not correct.

One merchant voices his sentiment as
follows: "If Secretory Taft’s plan for
free trade with the Philippines continues
it will eventually mean death to the
beet sugar industry of Michigan. The
beet sugar industry has been overdone in
Michigan. Within a radius of 30 miles
around my town 11 sugar factories were

the mind becomes deflected, to a cer

'by the vicious reading habit. It di

By deaaitory habits of reading and
lack of system you confuse the mind
with a large mass of unclassified ma

a few pages, and then pick up another
one. and then go from that to a paper
■or magazine. This puts the mind in
a chaotic state, because you let every
thing run Into the mental reservoir
without any order or definite plans
Systemlesa reading is profitless. You
cannot gain knowledge of a friend or
prize his friendship by a hasty first Im

not gain everlasting good by skimming

pages one night and then putting it on

made the following report:
Gentlemen—Your
committee
on
heating court house make the follow
ing report:
That we have corresponded with
heating flm» in Grand Rapids, Mus
kegon, Toledo, Chicago, and other
places. We find these different firms
to have tbeir own special ways and
designs for heating buildings, and also
their special make of boiler.
It is the opinion of your committee
that the boiler In any heating system
is the first and most important matter
to consider. We have visited several
bnildings both of large and small size
where theee different makes of boilers
are in operation and for various rea
sons we would recommend a horizontal
tubular boiler, dimewiion to be stated
in contract.
As to bow the court house shall be
heated your committee recommends
that it shall be steam.
We also advise nat the court house
be a distinct system by itself, the
court house hss a day period of about
nine hours, warming for six days in
tbe week. The jail has a twenty-four
hour period night and day for seven
days In the week, the consequence is
th la r we would be obliged to keep up
the court house heating plant nights
and Sundays, not needed for court
house just on account of jail use. We
think this would be.extravagant in the
matter of fuel and extra janitor work
besides the inconvenience of placing
the boiler tn a pit and various other

In Cornelia Hardman's favor from

However, In contradictory evidence

that is. next to nothing. On the wall
of her sitting room a newspaper article
elaborately Illustrated with photo
graphs taken by herself was displayed.
Tbe photographs were good, the article
mediocre.
This was the sole specimen of Corne
lia's work ever exhibited to me.
She lived In a three room fiat at the
top of a great new building of flats in
a miserable neighborhood.
After our first introduction there
were mouths that I did not see Corne

After a little in ber quiet way she

possessing at the same time an impenone foot taller.
Strange to ray, it seemed that at In
tennis ate felt tte necessity of m/ ries of watcbfulneas.
“It won’t be long now," reiterated
Cornelia, "before I shall go to him."
“But suppose you never tear from
him," I suggested, a bit brutally. “Sup

Thinking this over afterward, I en

Again she turned the quiet impene
trability of her gaze upon me.
“I think,” she said, “that I could even
stand that.”
But ber cheeks were blotched with
tbe tears that she ted shed the night
before.
It was impossible to refrain from ad
miring such strength of character.
Of myself I went to make ter a little
visit some six weeks later. I found
her In rooms disfigured by uptorn car
pets, by swathed furniture.
“Yeu arc going, then?" 1 queried.
“As soon ss I can g»*t ready, per

As I descended the weary stairs, part
light, part dark, and emerged into the
street. I discovered In my heart Just a
little envy of this great happlnewi tn
stare for Cornelia. Before 1 reached
home I contrasted it. with some degree
of bitterness, with my own life of
constant work. My room was like a
cave for loneliness when 1 entered It
The roeluesa of ber prospect left its
imprroaion upon me. It remained to
such an extent Indeed that before the
week was over I climbed those stairs

I regretted my distrust of her. 1

I found lhe flat closed. At my knock

She fractured my sentence by com

"That poor girl:" she lamented. "I
never felt so sorry for anybody in my
life as I did for that poor girl."
“Why?" I questioned.
She ted paused theatrically, await

Cornelia's wretchedness on her tongue.

When King Henry VIII. ascended the
throne his ruling idea seems to have
been the encouragement of archery,
and hence came statutes for enforcing
on the whole male population constant
practice with the bow (1512) and for
the prohibition of the weajion to all
allene without the king's license (1542).
Hence came, likewise, the incorpora
tion* of tbe artillery company in 1537,

national weapon and had shown him

Reynolds let tte note fall and leaned
back in bls chair.
It was tbe flrat time any one ever
had addressed sueb words to him.
Something within him began to vi

well nigh ns painful as wten a sleeping

For tin hour he sat almost motionless;

Picking up tte letter, he read aloud:

CARE OF MANES AND TAILS
Some Valuable Suggestions for the
of the Horse.
In response to an inquiry as to
what to do to improve rough, uneven
and unsightly manes and tails, a lead
ing horse authority gives its readers
the following suggestions:
"CieanlinesH is the first thing to be
looked after. If dirt is suffered to ac
cumulate at the roots of the long hair
the horse will rub and destroy IL
Therefore, good, honest soap and
water is a mighty aid to keep manes
and tails looking well. A little sheep
dlpzenoleum Is excellent, used period
ically at the roots of the long hair
will stimulate growth measurably
and kill or repel vermin that may have
found or seek a lodgment- When a
horse Is rubbing his tail, which ho al
ways is when anything is wrong, the
first thing to be done is to discover the
cause. Then apply plentifully soap and
water and the solution described. Ono
part of lhe dip in 50 parts of warm wa
ter is right as to strength. Then the
mane and tail should be kept clean by
the use of comb and brush and more or
glees frequent washing. The long hair
should be dried as well as possible after
each scouring, and when the dip solu
tion is applied there is no need to slop
it over so that it runs down or away
from the skin where It is needed. It
should be rubbed in brisaly for a few
moments. The mane and tell should be
handled gently. It is very easy to tear
out great quantities of the lopg hair
with a common currycomb, and in that
very way much damage is done. A cur
rycomb should never be used on a
mane or taiL Use the comb specially
designed for the purpose.
The tall
should never be plaited to make It look
crink>y. To plait it is to break off the
hair and tn time to spoil the looks of the

While it Is always an item to feed
well, young pigs may easily be stunted
by overfeeding.

Ordinary farm land, about one-third
of the farm or farms, should be plant
ed with turnips, yielding 10 to 20 tons
per acre, according to quality of the
«bil, costing about 50 cents per toh to
grow. Roots are the mainstay, about
16 pounds each day per bead being fed,
with a very small quantity ot hay, also
bran, peas, linseed and cotton cake,
oats, etc., all or part mixed In bulk—

enclose the flock in a new patch of
roots each day. passing over the field
bit by bit, leaving the land richly but
tered with humus.
The corn in the west is cheaper than
are the above-named mixed feeds east,
but the turnips, which play so impor
tant a part, will fully make good on
the side of economy. Feeding sheep
on arable land affords an additional
item of return equal to many tons of
city manure per acre, enriching the de
pleted soil and saving expensive fertil
izer bills. The English grow their fine
quality malting barley after sheep, and
It may yet be discovered that a finer
quality of tobacco can be grown in this
country after such a preparation.
Western lambs can be bought in the

LAMB’S CARCASS. SHOWING PARTS.
The wool or pelt is an Item of return.
The butchers who cater to fancy trade
will be compelled to fill orders for the
special goods, whatever tbe price may
be. A slaughter house on the farm
and a method of crating the whole or
pari of a sheep to each of the thou
sands of rich families in and around
New York city should be easily ar
ranged. advertising is unnecessary to
make known such a commodity; once
established, the only difficulty will be
to supply tbe demand.
In this billion-dollar age in the most
extravagant country under tbe sun, a
duplicate English saddle flap and'juicy
leg of mutton should command a hand
some return, easily doubling present
prices. The English-fed mutton con
tinues always to hold up a high price

'SHIED JIT LIFE'
—That's wbat a prominent
druggist said of Scott’s
Emulsion a short time
ago. As a rule we don’t
use or refer to testimonials
in addressing the public,
but the above remark and
similar expressions are
made so often in connec
tion with Scott's Emulsion
that they are worthy of
occasional note. From
infancy to old age Scott's
Emulsion offers a reliable
means of remedying im
proper and weak develop
ment, restoring lost flesh
and vitality, and repairing
waste. The action of
Scott's Emulsion is no
more of a secret than the
composition of the Emul
sion itself. What it does
it does through nourish
ment—the kind of nourish
ment that cannot be ob

No system is too weak or
delicate to retain Scott's

from it.

It Is a great mistake to set up our
own standard of right and wrong, and
judge people accordingly; to measure
the enjoyment of others by our own;
to expect uniformity of opinion in
this world; to look for judgment and
experience in youth; to endeavor to
mold all dispositions alike: not to
yield to immaterials; to look for per
fection in our own actions; to worry
ourselves and others with what can
not be remedied; not to alleviate all
that needs alleviation, as far as lies
in our power; not to make allowance
for the infirmities of others; to con
sider everything impossible that we
can not perform; to believe only what
our finite minds can grasp; to expect
to be able to understand everything:
and the last and greatest mistake of
all is to live for time alone, when any
moment may launch us into eternity.

leges fraudulent concealment of facts
on the part of the railroad in making
its reports to the state upon which its
taxes were based, and that after the
year 1854 it did not pay to the state
the amount of taxes it was required
under Its charter to have paid, having
omitted some of its loans and capital
stock from the reports. The state
claims a deficiency of nearly $5,000,000.
The company, in its briefs, claims
that tte state might have brought its
action at law Instead of in equity to
recover the taxes, but avers that such
action would have been barred by the

conjectures as to how the funds would
stand if the state should carry off the

which Is railroad taxes, than they pay
for the salary of teachers. Tbe last legis

over school expenses. But the removal
of the statute for thecompulsory levying

total number of districts is 7.225. While
the annual expenses of the public

But the limit wu reached tbe other

the other day Bishop Potior declared
that a sermon ought never to Im more
than 20 minutes long. Differing from
both these authorities, we are in*
formed that King Edward "cuts out"
the service altogether, and never ap

that be thinks the sermon the most
important feature of the service.
So the issue is presented, says the
Indianapolis News. In our opinion. If
we may venture to have one, no abso
lute rule can be laid down. A sermon
of ten minutes' duration by some
preachers would be a torment; while
one of 40 or even 50 minutes from
other preachers would be a delight
However, as there are few men be

it is safe to say that the presumption

If Money Brought Happiness.
If monay only brought happiness,
there would be little Christmas cheer
to hold a wagon. Caution should be
used against covering too early. Some
seem to have the impression that
strawberries are covered to protect
them from the cold. This Is not the
case; for It must be patent to every
one that six inches of .straw or corn
stalks will not keep out very much
cold.
If a thermometer were placed
above the straw and below It on a win
ter day the two would be found to
register about or exactly the same.
The covering Is put on to keep out
the heat In late fall and winter when
the plants are not covered'with snow.
The freezing and thawing of the
ground Is the thing to be guarded
against
If the covering is put on too early,
the plants may be smothered and
killed, for growth Is still going on
and evaporation Is talcing place from
the leaves.
While thia is the case,
covering would kill the leaves In*acme
cases, and in others would encourage
the growing on them of mildews.
When the leaves are frozen later on Is
the time to cover.
Then all growth
is arrested, and the covering cannot
smother them. For the same reason,
the straw must be removed quite early
in the spring before growth has set In.
It is not desirable to use for cover
ing any kind of material that packs
very closely. The keeping out of the
air is not desirable, but the protection
of the ground from the direct rays of
the sun. Coarse straw held down by
boards is good, and corn stalks are
also used. Sometimes It may be found
advisable to use a little straw be
low and cornstalks above, the latter
bolding the straw from blowing.
As to the advisability of covering
there Is a dispute, but it is doubtless
true that the man that covers bls
strawberries is sure of a crop of ber
ries the coming year; while the man
that does not cover is not sure of one.
We know of people in the latitude of
northern Illinois, says tbe Farmers*
Review, who never cover their vines
at all, and usually get fair crops, but
we also know that on occasional years
their beds in the spring are very
sickly looking and the resultant crop
is smalL
Further north In the latitude of Wis
consin, there can be no question of the
advisability of covering if a crop is to
be expected every year.
The oldest
growers there declare that they would
not try to grow strawberries without
covering. In fact a good many people
in past years gave up strawberry
growing there because they so fre
quently lost their beds in winter. But
since covering ha» become general
the result has been far otherwise.
As we go south the need of cov
ering decreases, but the practice in
each locality will have to depend on
experience. The locality that has for
a long time grown strawberries with
out winter protection will continue to
grow them that way.
But there are
always localities where the vines are
not covered, but should be. It Is aome
work to do the covering, and for this
reason the growers are likely to take
the risk of not covering If that risk
Is not too great. Where protection Is
needed It pays tn cover.

John Lamm locked the door and put
the key in his pocket And standing
with his back against it, said, serious"Thomas, I have always considered

uneasily, glancing keenly at his friend,
and thereafter avoiding his gaze.

Thomas, who has done in his day
excellent detective work as anybody In
the state, has at last fallen into the
snare of the siren, and forgotten his
duty. In other words, he is In love
with one of the principals. Instead of
arresting her he guards her. While
the police are searching everywhere
for her, he has her secretly hidden in
his own house, right under their very
Doses, and comes to his best friend
with a coolness that might (if he were
a little less wary) have ruined his
work on the case."
"John, you presume on your friend
ship," said Thomas, hotly. He had
been nervously fingering his watch
charm, and alternating between white
and red, throughout Lamm’s quiet
speech but he now started up and
faced the detective squarely.
"You
have no right to assume that there is
any sentiment in tl»e matter. You go
too tar when you charge me with Jet

You don’t

There is only one reason why you
didn’t come; you were more than
afraid that I would never approve of
so rash a proceeding on your part, and
you were resolved upon taking the step
at all hazards. In other words. King
man, you were a little ashamed.”
Thomas had regained control of hlmMlf. He drew himself up.

"And, If 1 tell you everything, will

Thomas, with peculiar emphasis on Lhe

hesitated.
Thomas compressed his lips tightly.

thing 1 thought was that she must be
guilty. All her actions—the headlong,

of criminality. She had fainted dead
away, but she soon began to come to
herself again. Thereupon I tied my
horse to a tree, and drew her Into the

was so weak and emotional I believed

“I kntfw the feeling." said Lamm
“I’ve had it myself. But go on.”
"Well, when she came to I began to
talk to her. Of course there was a
scene. She broke down completely,
and at her first words I understood
what I ought to have had sense enough
to have known from the first—that her
terror was not on her own account.
‘Oh. don’t let them arrest her!’ she
kept saylhg. ’Don’t. I beg of you!

“Of conrjc,” said Detective Lamm,
significantly.

explanation to my mother was suffi
cient. She opened her arms to the
fugitive, and Stella North has been un
der her charge ever since.”
“Ah! and you. of course, got the
whole story from the girl?”
“That night There is no question
about her frankness orjier honesty. If
you could talk with her ten minutes
you would be assured of that"
"Undoubtedly. And now for the
facts. What are they?”
"Well, Lamm.” said Thomas, “there
are two sets of facte—the Immediate
and the remote. Whether the remote

cannot tell. Nevertheless, you shall

“Of course,” said Lamm. “Every
thing in the case seems to have a pe
culiar trick of going back to him.”
"Still, I am unable to say that he
has any connection with this murder,
Lamm. It's a mystery, old man, as
you will soon see. Stella merely corrotorated the facts that I have told
yo-a already about Fetrldge’s connec

"I say this,” continued Thomas, “to

Stella never knew, she only knows
that they were together a great deal,
till one night they presumably quar
reled. for his visits ceased abruptly.
And the next thing Stella knew, the
engagement to Stack house was an
nounced."
"Wasn’t this a marriage from pique.
“So I fancy, Lamm. Stella will r.Qt
express her opinion to that effect, but
I can see that she thinks so. Well,
now, as to Fetridge coming back into
the family again since his return from
Australia. It was just as we surmised,
ostensibly to pay Stella some atten
tions: but the girl declares that he
never spoke of love to her. though ne
had plenty of opportunity.”
“Which Indicates.” said
1-amm.
quietly, “that Fetridge still came to see
Marlon, despite her marriage to Stack
house.”
“So it would seem; and that she re
gretted her hasty step In marrying too
soon. Well, but this is only specula
tion. To go on with lhe facts: Fetrldge’s’ attentions
to Stella
were
thoughtlessly received—the girl ins14a
she has no.other feeling for him than
that of a pleasant acquaintance—but
after his departure on his recent busineas trip, the purpose of which we
can’t determine. It came to her. ears
that there was a great deal of gossip
about their association.
She deter
mined to be more careful tn the future.
The day before the murder. Fetridge
reappekred at the house.
It would
seem that the instant he got home he
came to the North household. He be
gan to lay out plans at once to go
hither and yon with the girl. But the
poor thing’s suspicions were aroused
by her long month of reflection. She
determined not to be made a cats paw
of for any purpose, and at the first op
portunity-having summoned up tbe
'
necessary courage—she broached the
tabooed subject to her sister.”
“What time of day was this?”
“It seems to have been aboutthe
__
middle of the afternoon. Marlon was
not feeling very well. She was lying
down, and Stella was sitting beside her
with a fan. Marion Introduced Fetridge’s name herself, making some in
quiries about his visit of the previous
evening. Then Stella made so bold as
to ask her advice, and finally told what
her suspicions were.”
“But you don’t mean—’’
“Simply that Fetridge pretended to
pay attentions to her (Stella) for the
sake of appearances, and that bis real
object was to be near Marion."
’•Whew! Knowing the woman, I can
imagine the result*’
“Easily. But Stella was Innocent
enough. She merely intended to give
her sister a well-meant warning. Ma
rion received it as an insult. ’It is a
jealous He,’ she cries into the ears of
the astonished Stella. 'Richard Fet
ridge never meant to marry me; never
eared a feather for me.
If you had
asked me I could have told you ao.
But since you thought it better to play
the spy on me, why. I’ll prove it to
you.* And with a great emphasis on
the word prove, she dashed out of the
room."
“This woman is curious. No doubt
about it But her conscience trouble*
her, and she's jealous of Fetridge.
There’s no other explanation of thia
line of conduct"
“Ah, well," said Thomas, doubtfully,
“If Marion had married Stackhouse
purely from pique, and had been car
rying on the hollow mockery tor a
whole year, because she was too proud
to betray what she suffered to any liv
ing soul. It seems that there might be
enough inflammable material in her
emotional nature to get up a good blaze
at the first spark. Don’t you think
“Quite likely. It’s logically put, any
how. But about these proofs that Fetridge didn't care for her. I am anx
ious to know the nature of them.”
“So am I; but unfortunately they
disappear from my story with this
reference to them.

supposed Marlon went upstairs to get
something. Imagine her surprise, five

having the suits against the railroads
looked after, the money having been
paid out to lawyers, expert accountants
and engineers, who have been prepar

two years. There are three suits, the
tax case, which was 'heard In the
United States court at Grand Rapids
and which has been carried to the
United States supreme court; the Mich

the delinquent tax suit. There are so
many legal processes involved aud so
many intervening motions are being

matter and he is being urged to secure,
if it 1* possible, a speedy settlement of
these matters.
Warner Still Pursues Ball ways.
Gov. ' Warner is not satisfied with
the restoration of the Northern mile
age book on a portion of the railroads
of the state, and he has not given up
the fight for a more convenient system
of transportation. The conference
called In Chicago for December 9 has
not been called off and ths governor
will keep up the agitation. "One of
two things certainly ought to be done,"
he said. "Either the Central Passen

Of all the year's festival days, Christ

Easter commemorates the resurrection

nothing but the best in rings of all

DETECTING FORMALDEHYDE.
THE KHERSON OAT.
l|
Thia Preservative Has a Tendency to
Disappear from Milk In Which
It Has Been Placed.
Excellent Qualities of This Variety 1
of Grain as Proven by Ex
periments.
When samples of milk have been
taken that were supposed to be pre
served with formaldehyde, they have
sometimes been left for a long time
before being examined by the chem
ists, at which examination they were
found to contain do evidences of for
maldehyde.
The man from whom
these samples were obtained was thus
exonerated. It now appears, however,
says the
Farmers' Review, that
the
authorities
have
sometimes
erred in their conclusions, for It is now
fully demonstrated that formaldehyde
has a constant tendency to disappear,
although this disappearance is slow.
When a very small amount is used, it
disappears so rapidly from the milk
that its dlmunltion is noticeable with
in six hours. Ln some experiments
made at the Pennsylvania station,
formaldehyde added to milk in the
proportion of one part of formalde
hyde to 10,000 parts of milk disap
peared entirely in five days.
When
the amount was increased ten times
the disappearance was very slow, and
by the twenty-fifth day the formalde
hyde had only partially disappeared.
As might be expected, the disappear
ance was more rapid at high than at
low temperatures. This should be a
lesson to experts to hermetically seal
all vessels containing samples of milk
that are to be tested for use in legal
prosecutions.
One of the most important features
in the work of the experiment station
is the Introduction of new varieties oi
crops suitable to certain regions and
under special conditions. It Is a mat
ter of record that many valuable addi
tions have been made to the list of
crops which the country Is capable oi
producing. Much of this work is done
by .the stations in cooperation with
this department, but some is done in
dependently, says a writer in Farm-,
ers' Bulletin No. 222. A notable re-'
cent example of valuable work of this
character by an experiment station is
the introduction of the so-called
“Kherson oats" brought from Russia
by Prof. F. W. Taylor, of the Univer
sity of Nebraska, in 1896, and thor
oughly tested by the Nebraska station
as to its adaptability to the corn belt
of the United States.
The climatic condition most favor
able to the growth of pats does not
usually obtain in the “corn belt,'* and
it has been difficult to find a variety
of oats well adapted to this regior. It
is a curious fact that although the
great corn producing states are the
largest producers of oats, they are not
states in which the yield per acre is
high. An oat to produce well In Ne
braska, and particularly in the cen
tral and western part, should be very
early maturing, and should not run to
straw. Such a variety was found in
tbe Kherson government in Russia,
where the soli and climatic conditions
(small and uncertain rainfall) are sim
ilar to those of the Great Plains.
The Kherson oat is a vigorous but
not rank grower. The straw is very

Postmaster General’s Report.
Washington, Dec. IL—Postmastet
General Cortelyou, in bls annual re
port for the past fiscal year, says that
while a self-sustaining condition of ths
po»t office department would be grati
fying. he Is leas concerned about ths
deficit than the efficiency of adminis
tration. For the fiscal year 1905, the
total receipts from all sources were
>152,826,585, and total expenditures
>167,181,959, leaving a deficit of >14.*
572,584. In connection with these fig
ures the postmaster general directs at*
tention to the increased amount of free
matter handled, which he says aver
aged 12.58 per cent of the
entire
weight carried, or a loss In revenue of
919.S22.000.
"Manifestly,” he says,
"bad the matter now carried free been
required to have been prepaid, not
withstanding tbe large expenditures
for the rural free delivery service,
there would have been no deficit”
Answering some of the criticisms
which he says have been directed
against the postal service, he says that
much of it overlooks the unusual con
ditions existing in this country, its
great extent of territory and Its widely
scattered population. With the Intro
duction of rural free delivery as yet
unfinished and other details of postal
development Incomplete, he thinks It
the part of wisdom to proceed conserv
atively until the present service is
more nearly perfected.
"In other
words." says he. “it is believed that
for the time being attention can be
more profitably devoted to an improve
ment In the service already established
than to an immediate consideration of
such questions as the reduction of the
rates of postage, a parcels post, postal

The work of purifying the malls is
not confined to the suppression ot

and the punishment of those found to

mission. He adds that a more strict
enforcement of these statutes recently
has brought about highly gratifying
results.
As regards the rural free delivery
service, the postmaster general ex
presses confidence that future legiti
mate extensions can be accomplished
at a lower rate of expense.
At the end of the fiscal year. June 30,
there were in operation 68,131 post

Christmas Gifts
A dairy cow should not show any
marked falling off until after ten years
of age; many excellent records have
bcpn made by cows older than this.
The quality of milk produced by heif
ers is somtwbat better than that of
older cows, for we find a decrease of
one to two-tenths of one per cent in
the average fat contents for each year
till the cows have reached full age.
It is caused by the increase in tbe
weight of the cows with advancing age;
at any rate there appears to be a paral
lelism between the two sets of figures
for the same cowl—Midland Farmer.
Producer and Consumer.
It is very hard to reconcile the inter«*t* of tbe producer and the consumer.
The producer desires to receive high
prices and the consumer desires to pay
low prices. The only point that all agre«
upon is abundant production, which
makes moderate prices profitable and
satisfactory to all concerned.

The church was full of happy peo
ple. She nestled down quietly in a
corner, her part would not come for
a long time. By and by she fell to
wondering about the Christmas an
gels—if they would come to-night
across the fields. She had a great mind
to go and see. She could slip out of
the little door behind the curtain and
nobody would know.
So she gathered her fur cloak around
her and slipped out Into the snow. It
was so white and still out there; tbe
stars shone down at her; she was not
afraid. Tbe fields stretched away be
fore her in wide, white silence, and
she went away through a little hollow
and across a pasture field.
It was
growing cold and she shivered under
her fur cloak, but she did so want to
see if r*.e angels came.
She wondered If there would be any
little girl angels like her, and if she
would hear them sing. She wondered
which way they would come, and which
was the star the wise men followed.
Maybe if she knew she might follow
It, too. and find the little Christ-child,
for had not they told her >.aat He was
on earth still? That one great star
in the cast, could It be the one? It
was so bright she would follow It and
tee. It must be nearly time for the
angels to come.
Presently she began to wonder
which way she had come. The fields
were wide and white about her. rising
winds lifted tiny whirls of snow and
twisted them into garlands and then
dropped them gently.
She shivered
with the cold. Somewhere lay home,
and the warm, bright church, and she
could not tell which way. She looked
up at the stars, but they seemed so far
away, and tbe Christmas angels did not
come. She would sing; maybe they
would hear, and tell her which way
to go.
It was ten o'clock when Nate
Downey started home across the fields.
It was nearer that way; he would stop
at the church for Rosy. Tom and he
had quarreled that night, something
about the rivei>meadow. and he walked
on moodily, forgetting all about the
blessed Christmastide, and the baby
Peace that canpe to earth on Christ
mas night so long ago.
AU at once he stood still and lis
tened. Somewhere out ot the dim star
light a voice sang, faint and far.
"Peace on earth," It sang, "peace and
good-will.”
He remembered that it wm Christ
mas eve.
"Peace and good-will.” sang the
voice, blown a little farther by tbe
wind. It wm Rosy's song; what did
it mean? The father's Up trembled a
little. Rosy must be singing her song
now in the church; what did it mean
that he should hear it here? Wm any
thing wrong with ths child—his little
pet daughter? The wind blew the
sound to him again faintly.
"Peacv and good-will, good-will to
men!" Might It not be a message to
him? Perhaps after al! be had been
rMh and hasty with Tom; Tom wm a
good man. He would see him again
to-morrow.
Tbe voice came again, a little near
er* surely It wm a voice, a child's
voice, and there wm tbe sound of a
sob in It—it wm Rosy's voice!
Nate Downey hurried on. The wind
tossed the snow in bis face, clouds
were drifting up from the west, and
blotting out the stare.
He called finally across tbe field:
"Rosy! Rosy!" the wind caught the
name as i( reft his lips and tossed it
The little voice sang no more. Only
the wind kept up its swift minor swell,
and went on heaping little mounds in
the corners. A great fear wm in his

Alexia was

It stood in
the dining-room. Its
branches projecting about the windows
heavily laden with mysterious beribboned parcels and ralnbow-hued orna
ments.
"A real ChristmM, after all,” cried
Alexia, and the smile which accom
panied the words would have led one
to believe that she wm in her sixth
winter instead of In her three-timesthat-many with a few years addedjust a few years, though!
The fam
ily Bible said Alexia wm two-andtwenty.
A great gust of wind drew her at
tention suddenly without She stood
by the window wondering If it wm to
be a real blizzard like they had in
The heap of snow was growing
larger and larger, and she watched the
feathery flakes pile up on each other
affectionately. All at once a white
something, larger and more substan
tial than a Snowflake, was drifted onto
the heap. It was a tiny white, en
velope.
When she had finished tho popper of
corn Alexia opened the window and
picked up the damp little paper. One
short word was written In a muchblurred and childish hand:
"God."
Alexia would not have been so sur
prised If it had been Santa Claus.
Children often write to him.
Out of tbe envelope she pulled a
piece ot note paper—probably surrep
titiously borrowed—on which was writ
ten in the undeveloped hand of a little
one:
"Dear God. please make me a Christ
mas tree like the one in the window
across the court I can see It. I will
put this on the roof so's you’ll get it
sooner. Yours truly, Sammie."
So Sammie was the name of the lit
tle boy she had seen so often In the
opposite window. He seemed lonely;
she judged that his mother wm dead
and that the child's father was a busy,
thoughtless man. An old housekeeper
was the only person she ever saw
about the apartment.
It was because Alexia had been a lit
tle lonely herself as ChristmM drew
near—her first Yuietide In the city—
that she had gathered this little circle
of poor children and planned a party
for them. Her reasons, were not purely
philanthropic.
There wm no need of two persons
'.•elng lonely. Alexia philosophized, and
she straightway went over to Inter
view the old housekeeper in regard to
Sammie. She did not mention the
note, for, should the child find out,
his faith would be shattered.
On ChristmM morning, before Alexia
was fully dressed, a small young male
visitor wm announced. No name wm
given, and she wondered if some of tbe
poor little children, in his joyful an
ticipation of the day. had been unable
to restrain himself until the appointed
hour of the party.
But It wm Sammie. He stood breath
lessly In the hall without either coat
or hat, hls little cheeks bright with
the nipping breath of Jack Frost.
"Uncle Dick's come," he said, by
way of introduction to his mission.
“My Uncle Dick came last night, and—
and I can’t leave him all alone. Please
"Of course. Sammie, bring Uncle
Dick along," she said, taking bls little
round face in her hands. x
Alexia’s children had all arrived but
Sammie, and the dining-room wm
filled with ejaculations of delight at
each new view of the splendid tree.
She wm beginning to wonder wheth

tingle of the bell seemed to say "8amAlexia answered the ring heroelf.
"Here’s Uncle Dick,” said her small
friend before she could open the door
for him. "Where’s the tree?" he cried,
his childish excitement and importance

some custom. It helps one to feel the supremacy of
tbe commen life over tbe individual fife. It reminds a
man to set his own little watch, now and then, by the
great clock of humanity.
But there is a better thing than the observance of Christmas
day, and that is, keeping Christinas.
Are you willing to forget what you have done for other people
and to remember what othdr people have done for you; to ignore
what the world owes you and to think what you owe the world; to
put your righto in the background and your duties in tbe middle
distance and your chances to do a little more than your duty in tbe
foreground; to see that your fellow men are Just as real as you
ere, and try to look behind then- faces to tbeir hearts, hungry for
joy; to own that probably the only good reason for your existence
is not what you are going to get out of Life, butwhat you are going
to give to life; to close your book of complaints against the man
agement of tbe universe and look around you for a place where you
can sow a few seeds of happiness—are you willing to do these
things even for a day ? Then you can keep Christmas.
Are you willing to stoop down and consider the needs and tbe
desires of little children; to remember tbe weakness and loneliness
of people who are growing old; to stop asking how much your
friends love you and ask yourself whether you love them enough;
to bear In mind the things that other people have to bear on their
hearts; to try to understand what those who live in the same house
with you really want, without waiting for them to teil you; to trim
your lamp so that it will give more light and less smoke, and to
carry it in front so that your shadow will fall behind you; to make
a grave for your ugly thoughts and a garden for your kindly

CHRISTMAS OF PURITANS.
After Time of Queen Bess Birthday
of Christ Was Made Occasion
for Mad Bevelry.
.
"On tho night preeaBLng the ifith
of December. 1170," began a captain,
according to the Methodist Recorder,
“I was in command of a company of
volunteers engaged in the defense of
Paris. Tbe siege had already lasted
three months, and in the trenches my
brave comrades were enduring martyr
dom of suffering and privation. The
cold was biting bitterly; the stars were
shivering in a cloudless sky; the moon
shone brightly on the snow-clad plain
between us and tbe enemy; tbe Ger
man trenches were so close to us that
we could hear tbe passwords of tbeir
sentinels as, hour by hour, they were
relieved and passed into tbeir camp.
"As I was walking about to keep my
feet from freezing, one of my men
caas up to me, and. saluting, said:
‘Captain, I have a strange request* to
make; I want you to permit me for alittle while to leave the trenches.'
"‘Leave the trenches?* I replied.
‘But why? Because it is so cold? It
will be warm enough when we begin
to fight.’
"’It la not that. I ask you, as a
favor, to allow me for a little while
to leave my post I cannot tell you
why; but, If you -grant me leave, I
promise you you won't regret it.’
“ ‘Impossible! You want to go to
Paris. If I give you leave, I cannot
well jleny it to tne rest’
“ 'No, not to Paris,’ said he, smil
ing, 'but in that direction.* pointing
toward the German lines. ‘I shan't be
long.'
“He had aroused my curiosity. .1
granted him permission, but warned
him that he would most probably get
killed.
" ’No fear/ he ?aid. and. leaping over
the ramparts, he walked into the mid
dle of tbe plain.
“We followed him with our eyes,
listening for tbe sharp crack of tbe
enemy’s rifles, and expecting at every
step to see him fall. Not a sound,
save the crunching of the frozen snow
beneath bls feet! As soon as he had
come within hearing of the German
sentries he paused, saluted, and began
to sing a well-known Christmas hymn,
with the refrain:
•
"Noel! No®!! Christ is King of Israel!"
“It was so unexpected and so simply
done, the strain took from tbe night,
the scene, the circumstances, such a
beauty and sublimity that the least
religious of us hung upon his lips,
and the hardest hearted in our trench
were moved. The Germans neither
spoke nor stirred. It seemed as if a‘
spen uad bound them ail in silence and
in immobility. The simple strain had
doubtless made them think of home
and of the happy groups around tbe
glittering Christmas trees beyond the
Rhine. They were evidently listening,
for no other sound was audible—not
a step, not a movement ot arms. As
soon as X------ had done his hymn
he gave another military salute, turned
on his heel as on a pivot, and delib
erately walked back to our line.
“ 'Well, captain,' said he, 'are you
sorry that you gave me leave?’
“Before I could reply, a soldier had
begun to move across the snow from
the opposite camp. He, like X------ ,
saluted, and, between the companies
of armed men. he sang a German ver-;
slon of the 'Noel, Noel,* that the
French recruit had sung. I bad given
orders, though they were superfluous,
not to fire on him. He sang tbe hymn
through, verse by verse, and when he'
came to the refrain, the soldiers in
both camps joined in the chorus:
■
“Noel! Noel! Christ 'bath r«r.«on-.ed
Israel!“
"The same emotion filled all hearts.
All diversities and enmities bad been,

More and more after the time ot
Queen Bess was Christmas made an
caslon for mad revelry Instead of a joy
ous Christian celebration.
Finally that part ot the English peo
ple called the Puritans, who had become
disgusted with the growing foolishness
of the Christmas celebration, got parlia
ment to prohibit Christmas festivities
of any sort. And for ten years the only
way Christmas was celebrated was by a
fast. Even for merely decorating tbeir
church with evergreens the trustees of
St. Margaret's (Westminster) church,
in London, were placed under arrest.
Tbe Puritans went entirely too far,
you see. in their sternness, and, natur
ally, the people rebelled. So they be
gan celebrating Christmas secretly at
home with all sorts of festivities. And,
because they did it secretly, they felt as
if they were very sinful. "When tbe
church refused to use her pleasant nests
Satan stole them and made them
snares." So people said at that time; or,
as other people put it: “Father Christ
mas was let in at the back door."
A little later, when the Puritans lost
their political power in England a-d
had to seek a refuge elsewhere, many of
them, as you know, came to America.
Bringing with them, as they did, tbeir
stern prejudice against festivals, they
completely ignored Christmas for a
|ong. long time.
Tbeir children and great-grandchil
dren, however, did not inherit their
prejudice so strongly, and then, too, they
were influenced by the Dutch colonists
in New Amsterdam (now New York),
who always kept a very merry, but per gan to fire again.'
fectly respectable, Christmas.
A
NEW YEAH RESOLUTION.
Bo, at last, Puritan New England
“came around," and permitted Christ
mas to be celebrated once,again in all
her homes with "moderate festivities
and rejoicing after attendance at the
place where God Is preached."

There is a placid, painstaking, pr>saic, but much beloved aged aunt to a
large flock of youthful nephews and
nieces whose system, based upon tfiH
comfortably simple view, refuses to
consider even the drawback of du

An unfortunate schoolgirl whosa
birthday in November had brought her
already two pairs of bed shoes, in
what she had discovered to be Anne
Elmira's bed-shoe year, tried to avoid
a third pair by a word In season con
veyed discreetly through a cousin.
"Dear, dear!" murmured Aunt El

needles for an instant. "Both pairs

sure that my pair is pink, and—yes.
that is a very good idea—I'll knit
them a size or two larger, so she can
wear out the other first, and bo quite
sure’they will fit when she is ready
for them.
Pink wl£h a white finish
should be pretty."
Very gently the cousin hinted at
some other present, but Aunt Elmira's
head was shaken at once, a slight but
decisive shake.
“No. dear," she affirmed, tranquilly,
"two kinds of gifts are all I can make
in one year without feeling myself
worried and flurried. Ruth will find
her bed shoes just as serviceable and
just as pretty a year or two later, if
she can't wear them now, it doesn't
matter. My mind was made up long
ago, my dear,_that too many Christ
mases were spoiled by worrying."
Perhaps Ruth waa not wholly grate
ful for tbe pink shoes, and the system
may be questioned; but Aunt Elmira's
friends certainly find the spectacle of
one person always unhurried, unwor
ried and unruffled, even tn the wild
weeks before Christmas, a soothing
and refreshing sight. -

Christmas tree, and once made can be
used year after year, says Woman a
Home Companion. Buy up a dozen or
more of five and ten-cent dolls, and to
add to the variety have among the num
ber some Japanese and colored dolls.
Dress these to represent fairies in bright
hues of spangled gauze, tarlatan or tis
sue paper, and liberally sprinkle their
hair and garments with diamond-duet
powder. Each doll should be provided
with a dainty pair of fairy wings made
from spangled tissue paper anfl fastened
to the body by means of concealed wires.
These wires should be colled to obtain
motion in the wings, and nothing better
can be used than the fine spiral coils
that come out of worn-out wire-stltchwi
brooms. Tbe least motion will set this
spiral to quivering, causing the wings
to move as if in flight In like manner
use the spiral wire to attach the dolls In
hovering positions over and around the

end of stock. Grafting wax 1* applied
to the cut surfaces to keep down evap
oration. Whip grafting is used where
stocks are small. Both stock and scion
are cut diagonally and split somewhat;
then the cut fares (thre^-quarter InCh
king) ore pushed together and some
times bound with raffia (a kind of grass)
or other material, and waxed. See Fig. 2.
Ail cuts must be smooth, and the
growing cells of stock and scion must
be placed In close contact so that the sap
may pass readily from one to the other,
cautions the Ohio Farmer. It is well to
use considerable pressure upon the
union and then cover with grafting wax.
The tools and material used in grafting
are: A sharp knife; a saw for large
stocks; a grafter's tool, consisting of a
combined chisel and wedge; a mallet;
some raffia or other binding material;
grafting wax. The wax is made of rosin
four parts, beeswax two parts, tallow
one part by weight, melted together,
then poured into cold water and ‘•pulled"
with greased hands.
Increase the
amount of rosin if wax is too soft.
If stock ha* been removed from
ground before grafting by the whip or
tongue method, set out afterward deep
enough to reach a good moisture supply,
compact the soil and cultivate well. Rub
off buds which begin to grow below the
union. Apple grafts may grow fairly
well If made after the buds open.

Cut Out Old Wood.
After the fruiting season Is over in
a good time to cut out the old wood
and leave nothing but this year's
growth of canes. The cane* that bear
fruit this year will not bear fruit an
other year, consequently they should
be removed, and the sooner this is done
after th«? fruit ha* been picked the
better. If they are cut out at that time,
tbe plant food taken up by the roots
all goes Into the young wood, thereby
inducing more vigefrou* growth This
method is not to be recommended, how

The time when, with a nat
ural impulse, the millionaire, banker,
broker, merchant and the wage work
er remember their less fortunate
brother man.
The man who would
uudertake even to approximate the
millions given away at this time ot
year would set himself an impossible
task, but tbe following Information
may aid one to form some Idea.
The present-day custom of em
ployers of giving money gifts to their
employes undoubtedly had its origin
among bankers and brokers; but it
has gradually spread until now the
employer who does not distribute
Christmas envelopes to make glad the
men and women who work for Him
is the exception that proves the rule.
In New York’s financial center.
Wall street, the year 1901 is still well
remembered for the great sums of
money given by the financiers, bank
ers and brokers to their thousands of
employes; it was the record year for
good cheer.
For Instance, it is a
well-known fact that tbe firm of J. P.
Morgan A Co. gave to lt^ employes
alone upward of half a million dollars.
Even clerk received an amount
equivalent to his year’s salary, while
the heads of departments had checks
amounting from 86,000 to 820,000 hand
ed to them with the firm’s best wishes
for a “Merry Christmas and a Happy
New Year.”
But while the gifts have not been
so large since, no man who fl nds nis
living in Wall street suffers for want
of generosity on the part of his em
ployer at this season. For years, no
matter what the condition of the mar
ket. one well-known broker has given
ordinary dinner—then comes tne 8100 in gold to each of his office boys,
serving of the feast.

the turkey on the table before the
guests come in, or to set forth the
ducks, the geese, the roast of beef, or
the loin of pork—whatever may be the
Christmas bird.
But in these later and more pam
pered days the stomach rebels against
the sudden plunge into the roast, and
the palate demands a relish—oysters,
soup. fish, and goodness knows what
ail!
The roast comes later, flanked
with a green salad and with veg
etables and with the mound of cranberles.
If the turkey must be present from
the beginning to the end, it is a wise
plan to place him upon a side table.
Here he can be carved and distrib
uted.
Upon the table he is always
in the way, and there is no room nor
comfort for the carver. He. if be so
please, can exhibit his skill from a
side table, and the guests can be'
served by a serving maid who will
carry the plates around.
Even- Christmas dinner must have

000 into the Christmas box.
Although wage-earners im o‘.her
marts of trade probably, as a rule,
do not fare as well as this, few there
are who are entirely forgotten.
A certain big department store in,
one of the eastern cities has g:ven
each of its 2,000 odd employes five <1ol
lars apiece for several years past, 'the
amounHs not graded according to tne
employe's position and importance.
The memlKrs of the firm take the
ground that they give the.five-dollar
bills simply as a reminder of the good
will they bear their workers, and so
the head of the silk department is not
entitled to a gift one tithe bigger than
that received by the humblest package
wrapper in the store..
For some reason or other, fire dol
lars has come to be looked on. out
side of banking and financial circles,
as about the right sum to be given
to employes.
Inquiry among office
workers in the sky-scrapers and the
aalee-people la the retail and whole
sale stores has substantiated this
statement.
But many a flrm does not limit its
Christmas box contributions to those
who work for it directly. This Is par
ticularly true of concerns with of
fices in the skyscrapers. The eleva
tor men. the superintendent, the win
dow cleaners, the scrub women, all are
taken care of.
And the amount of
money they get is a caution. In one
of the lower skyscrapers <»f New York

Another contribution of generous
proportions put into the Christmas
Lox is that for dinners to the poor.
Hundreds of dinners of this qharaxter
are given on Christmas day through
out this broad land—dinners with
turkey and cranberry sauce and. pie
nnd Ice cream, and all the good things
associated with the day. And these
good things cost money-turkey at 25
cents a pound, and the other delica
cies in proportion.
Last year the Salvation Army fed
300,000 poor In oar large titles, and
over 8100.000 was collected for -hla
purpose by means of the army's pot,-now
a familiar sight at this season to
every dweller in New York. Chicago,
Philadelphia, Boston, and other cities.
Amounts varying from one cent to
8500 are dropped into the pots. 'So
many pennies are contributed in New
York and Chicago that machines are
employed In counting them.
Many millionaires there are also
who are noted for their gifts at this
time of the year to cheer the poor. A
big wholesale poultry dealer in New
York has had one ot the country's
leading millionaires for a regular tffistoiper for the last six Christmases,
and each season ho places an order
for 500 turkeys—81300 for this one
item alone. John E. Andrus, mayor

of deep conviction. “I am willing to

“Because 1 always look to the char

“I tell you. Lamm." he declared. “I

were entirely mental. He only re

took a decided notion Unit he wanted
to be Introduced to Stella, with whom
he had never been given an opportun

the chance of converting bls friend
wholly to the cause of the unfortun

would do. So the two men were soon

reporter's home.

tbeir roads, says the Prairie Farmer,
Tbe nearest gravel is 12 mites away
from their district, bat, not to be dis
couraged by this fact, they hav* actual
ly gone even thi* distance and bought
a gravel pit
Instead of doing all of their road
work during the busy season, when
farm work is pressing. they haul thsir
gravel during tbe winter and leave It
in pile* beside the road, where It can
be readily shoveled in when the roads
settle in the spring. We are even told
that these thrifty Germans are not in
frequently at their gravel pit before
daylight ready to load and haul their
gravel to their home district
This is what w* would call putting
"heart" into road making. We venture
that tbe men who are willing to g* to
thi* trouble will hav* better road* than
tbeir neighbors, who think thia plan
too expensive, and who are waiting
for some cheaper or "easier” way.
One of the great troubles with road
making to-day is the fact that too
many districts will not spend any
money, while their taxpayers do as lit

are strongly of the opinion that no per

When farmers as a class want better
roads they will have them, but "want”
will be more than mere desire, and will
be backed with the determination that
the better the thing can and must be
realized.
We admire the determination and
willingness to undergo hardship that
these German farmers display. They
want better highways, and while they
realize the cost, they are content to pay
the price. The proposition is clear

The Evangelical church is making
its annual preparations for Christ
mas tide. This is never omitted, for
tbe brightest anticipations of the
children roust be realized. This year
we shall endeavor to make tbe best
and most inspiring in the history of
our church. Because of the great
number of Sabbath School scholars,
we have divided our program into
two parts. The first half will be
given on Sunday evening, December
24, instead of preaching service. It
will consist of solos, duets, ladies'
quartette, declamations, readings,
etc. The last half will come on Mon
day evening. Then will come the reg
ular Christmas festival. The presen
tation of gifts, joyful faces, light
hearts and happy children will all be
mixed in a delightful beverage for the
older ones. Let us produce happi
ness, for that is tbe spirit of Christ
mas. Everyone is cordially invited
to attend both of these Christmas en
tertainments.

CLEVER
SCHEME
OF JAPS.
Cable Bates Circumvented by Them
Duriag the Portsmouth Peace
Conference.
"There are not many people who
can get ahead of a telegraph com
pany." said a correspondent who came
back to Washington from Portsmouth,
"but I suspect that the Japanese corlespondents managed it during the
peace conference. You know that
cables rates to Japan are- pretty heavy,
and there was as much as >1.25 a word
paid on some of the urgent messages,
while about 68 cents was the lowest
press rate. The correspondents were
sending a lot ot matter, and, of course,
the Japanese messages had to be
translated in a way before they could
be sent. The Morse code can’t ‘cope
with the 57,000 ideographs that the
Jap language Is made up of. so the
Jap correspondents used to write the
messages phonetically in English
characters and send their messages in
that way. They were read off and
transferred to Japanese type in Toklo.
Of course, the telegraph company
could not read them, and as the limit
In size for a cable word Is 15 letters,
the Japs used to divide their mest-ages up regularly into English letters
in blocks ut 16. No word was ever
longer or shorter than 15 letters, and
the cable company had to take It that
way and stand for it.
*’*Tbe chief operator used to kick
and oomplain occasionally, but he
could not go back of the explanation
that each of the 15 letter groups was a
Japanese word spelled phonetically.
But he swore Japanese waa the moat
oueerly regular language be ever saw.
Of course, the caole bills were pretty
high at that
"But the cable company probably
made les* out of the Japanese than
they did out of any of the other corlespondents. The Russian alphabet is
made up of non-Englisb letters, but it
can be sent In Morse and there were
some operators who could do IL
though the most of the Russian mes
sages were written either in French or
English.'*
"It is a wonder to me,” said a stale
department clerk, who was listening
io the story, "that the Jap* did not
use their code book. At least there is
one in China, and I suppose there is
one in Japan. You know the Chinese
characters cannot be cabled any more
than can the Japanese, but they get
over that difficulty by having in every
Chinese telegraph office a simple code,
in which the message is written with
numerals. Each page of the code book
is divided into 58 squares, numbered
tn sequence, and in each square is a
Chinese word, the commoner words
coming among the lower numbers
When the telegram is written the
render simply puts down the number
of tbe square in place of the word if

of Financier — Chicago National,
Home Savings and, Y-qul table In
volved-Depositors MpB..
Chicago, Dec. 18.—The Chicago Na
tional and the Home Savings banks
and the Equitable Trust company,
properties controlled by John R.
Walsh, are bankrupt Tbe news of
the failure, which was made public
Monday, has deeply stirred financial
circles. Depositors have been as
sured that they will not lose a dol
lar. At an all-night session of the
members of the Clearing House asso
ciation, which broke up at five a. m..
tbe bankers of Chicago guaranteed to
make good every liability of the in
stitutions to depositors.
For a week the end of the three
Walsh Institutions had been in sight,
but tbe embarrassment was known
only to a few of the leading financial
men of Chicago and the announcement
of the failure came as a shock to the
public generally. Mr. Walsh’s pri
vate speculation and an attempt to op
erate the Southern Indiana railroad
and Investments in coal lands, quar
ries and a vast number of other side
lines caused the collapse.
Comptroller William Barrett Ridgley
was hurriedly summoned to Chicago
three days ago to Investigate the af
fairs of the three concerns. He issued
a statement Monday laying the failure
to Mr. Walsh’s investments.
The clearing house committee sent
out the following statement for pub
lication in the Chicago newspapers
Monday:
"To the Public: Depositors of the
Chicago National bank. Home Savings
bank and Equitable Trust company are
respectfully advised that their deposits
will b? paid in full upon demand." .
The big financial Institutions opened
at the usual hour with crowds surg
ing in to secure their money. With
drawals were paid promptly amid sup
pressed excitement No deposits were
accepted, however.
The New Organisation.
Reorganization of the Chicago Na
tional bank was announced shortly be
fore noon, when Examiner Bosworth
gave out the following statement: "At
a meeting of the Chicago National
bank all of the old directors except
C. K. O. Billings, who Is not In the
city, resigned, and the places of the
retiring directors were filled by the
election of all the members of the
clearing house committee and Natlonal Bank Examiner Bosworth. The
following named men, well known In
Chicago, now comprise tbe directors:
James B. Forgan. John J. Mitchell,
Orson Smith, James H. Eckels and
Ernest A. Hamill. John R. Walsh
resigned as president and Fred M.
Blount as vice president.
Mr. Bos
worth was elected president to suc
ceed Mr. Walsh. No successor to Mr.
Blount was elected.”
Examination Begun December 9.
The comptroller and state auditor
confirmed the findings of Ae bank ex
aminers. wbo had begun their exam
inations as early as December 9. The
Incentive to a close and unanimous
scrutiny of the trio of banks Is said
to have been given by a New York
banker who had been solicited to take
part In a syndicate .to furnish a loan
of $6,000,000 to Walsh for the purpose
of further expenditures on the South
ern Indiana railway. The bonds did
not find a market, even at a deep con
cession in price. Shortly after the
state and national bank examiners
were apprised of the failure of the
loan. Both decided to examine Walsh’s
affairs simultaneously.
Heretofore
the banks have been looked up sep
arately, which enabled a transfer of
liabilities from the national bank to
the trust companies and vice versa.
Find $15,000,000 in Loans.
The simultaneous examination star
tled the examiners. They found that
the Institutions had loaned approxi
mately $15,000,000 on the securities of
the railways owned practically by
Walsh alone->-that In the Southern In
diana. the Chicago Southern (which is
an extension of the Southern Indiana)
and the Wisconsin 4 Michigan. The
negotiations of these loans were pecul
iar. Tbe total' liabilities, it Is esti
mated. will foot up $26,000,000. The
National bank has $16,000,000 In de
posits and tbe Home Savings has $4.
000.000. representing the deposits of
8,000 persons. In an effort to make
up as much as possible of tbe deficit
the directors came to the front with
Mr. Walsh and surrendered funds.
This means that $3,000,000 worth of
good securities has been turned over
to meet the liabilities from this source.
Upon investigation at the secret meet
ing of the Chicago bankers it was de
termined that there was a difference
of $2,000,000 or $1,900,000 between
assets and liabilities,which the aseociatlon of bankers agreed to make good.
and House.
Washington, Doc 15—Mr. Bennett
of New York, introduced a bill in the

The senate spent four hours Thurs
day In discussing the Panama canal
emergency appropriation bill, and when
It adjourned the bill was still under
consideration.
Washington. Dec. 16.—The house on
Friday devoted four and three-quar
ter hours to lively debate on the pos
sibilities of controlling insurance com
panies. Two set speeches were the
features. One, by Mr. Sherley (Ky.),
bore on the doctrine of states* rights,
and the other by Mr. Cockran (N. Y.).
related tc the actions of the officers

companies of his state, Mr. Cockran
proposing that congress, through its
taxing power, should confine all insur

The Panama canal was again under
consideration by the senate Friday,
and Senator Tillman occupied the ex
ecutive time given to that subject
He criticised the president's policy In
Santo Domingo, and Senator Spooner
defended the president's course.
Washington. Dec. 18—The senate
Saturday passed the Panama canal
emergency bill, appropriating $11,
000,000 for the work, after a long de
bate. An amendment was tacked on
which requires that congress shall be
supplied with regular estimates of all
salaries, except those paid to labor
Washington. Dec. 19.—Insurance,
hazing, the suffering Russian Jews
and immigration were all topics of dis
cussion in the house Monday under
the general leave to talk. The only
buslnes done was to send the canal ap
propriation bill to conference.
Whether the senate Is warranted In
Ignoring a senator convicted In the
courts on charges of misconduct and in
not assigning him to places on stand
ing committees, yet leaving hls name
on the roll, was discussed for two
hours Monday and then dropped with
out a ruling. The matter came up
when the list of standing committees
was presented and It was stated that
the name of Senator Burton..of Kan

A resolution providing for adjourn

waa adopted.

xy^aifhy Indiana Farmer Found with
Head Crushed In by a Heavy
Club.
Cambridge City, Ind., Dec. 18.—The
body of Joseph Luzy, a wealthy farm
er living two and a half miles south
of Milton, was found in a bedroom
of his home Sunday morning, with a
large gash on the side of the head and
the skull badly crushed. Lying just
outside the door of the house was
found a heavy club, stained with
blood, which Is supposed to have been
the weapon used by the murderer. He
was known to have had about $400 on
his person when last seen and robbery
Is thought to have been the motive for
the dime, as no money was found on
the tody. Coroner Markley states that
in his opinion Luzy had been dead at
least 36 hours. In searching through
the house the coroner found $4,128
hidden in the garret. There Is no clew
to the murderers.

The Chinese closed their shops when
tbe rioting began. The local . volun

and detachments of blue jackets were
landed from the warships to assist in
restoring order.
Boycott Is Main Cause.
Washington, Dec. 19.—The state de
partment has news from Shanghai that
a serious situation exists there. Two
cablegrams received at the depart
ment over night state that trouble
arose through a strike and was In
creased by a dispute growing out of
some cases being tried before the con
sular courts.
The state department's Information
of these events was contained in sev
eral dispatches from Shanghai, the last
of which was received from Consul
Geenral Rodgers. It is gathered that
the moving causes for the riots were
the anti-American boycott and a gen
eral feeling of hostility toward for
eigners such as preceded the Boxer up
rising of 1900.
At the hour of sending the first dis
patch. probably some time Sunday
night, two Chinese had been killed in
tbe riots and the American consul gen
eral had telegraphed for help from
American naval vessels. A later dis
patch from the same source reported
the continuance of the riotous condi
tion. adding that the police stations
had been burned and a number of peo
ple killed, probably about 30, includ
ing some foreigners. Up to that mo
ment the streets were being guarded
by the volunteers and the naval forces.
Mr. Rodgers’ last word was that he
expected the American cruiser Balti
more. which was Sunday at Chinklang,
about a day’s run from Shanghai, to
reach the latter place soon.
A later dispatch received from Mr.
Rodgers was to the effect that all
parts of the elty of Shanghai had been
put under martial law and that the
foreigners were all arming. A dis
patch received there from Chefoc
stated that all was quiet In that city.

POPULAR TALKS ON LAW.
LANDLORD AND TENANT.
No. 9. Notice to Quit.
In determining what, if any, notice
to quit is necessary, reference should
be bad to the terms of tbe lease.
When tbe lease fixes a time for the
termination of the tenancy, no notice
to quit is neaessary.
Where the lease is for an indefinite
time, notice to quit is required, unless
otherwise agreed upon between tbe
parties.
The statutes in most of the stales fix
in lhe ’.ease agreed a* to the notice;
- tbe statutes of tbe state in which the
property is situated should therefore
be consulted.
Indefinite terms arise either from
the fact that tbe lease itself eels no
limit to tbe term, or from the fact
that one who ha* held under a lease
made for a fixed term, hold* over fa
- to another term without the consent
of the landlord .becoming in tbe latter
vase a tenant from year to year or
from month to month, ai the original
lease was for a year or years, or for
a month or months.
Where the original lease providefor an indefinite period, it usual!j
provides that notice must be given
to terminate; if it does not so pro
vide, tnen u.c taw fixes tbe notice.
Tbe law fixing the notice is the salne
for an indefinite tenancy as for a ten
ancy by holdfag over.
Where the term is from year to
year, there must be a notice of at least
six months before the end of the year,
unless otherwise provided by statute
In case of a tenancy from quarter to

"Here I am. with a sore shoulder and

Miss Racquets is probably in the courts
to-day with some college boy. And I

party, "but as a prophet count me out.

"Well, I borrowed some clubs and we

‘ vThis is one of that kind of matters
in which the newspapers are of tne
most service," said that potentate,
after a brief reflection. "We might
keep this thing In our possession for
a dog's age, and never know any more
the newspapers publish it we stand
an even chance of hearing something
about this Mr. Runyon—if the ciew
amounts to anything at all, whldh is
doubtful. By the way. did you ask
tha old lady if she had ever heard of
any person of that name?”
“To be sure I did." said the
spector, "and she expresses complete
Ignorance. I think I'll make some In
quiries of Stackhouse as to whether
there was ary such man to his knowl
edge associated with North in busi
ness, before giving the thing to th*
newspapers."
"To be sure." said the inspector;
“but It's doubtful. Apparently North
attached no importance to the com
munication, for if he had made any
talk about it. we should have heard
of the thing before.”
With the letter Id his pocket, In
spector Applebee set out at once in
quest of the jsnlor partner.
Inspector Applebee. however, had
some difficulty in finding Thornton
Stackhouse.
The fact was that at this moment
he was engaged In an earnest comm
ence with Detective John Lamm at the
latter’s office.
Mr. Stackhouse had said, as soon as
Mr. Lamm had closed the door of the
inner office, "foe the purpose of giv
ing you a little information with ref
erence to personal matters, which 1
ought, perhaps, to have mentioned to
you before.”
Stackhouse looked rather perturbed,
and refrained from meeting the steady
gaae of the mm whom he addressed.
"I trust,” said Lamm, "that it is not
too late now."
"No.” rejoined Stackhouse, nervous
ly; “no, it is not too late for you; for
There was something despondently
apprehensive in the tones of the man
as he said these words, but overcom
ing with apparent effort bls tendency
tone of forced briskness:
“Mr. Lamm. I intrusted you In the
first place with all that occurred to me
to have any special bearing upon the
North case, when I engaged you."
The detective's rilsed eyebrows evi
dently conveyed his surprise at this
abatement, for Stackhouse went on im
mediately: “Yes; It is not about that,
but about things immediately growing
out of it that I have come to speak
to you now, Mr. Lamm; tn other words
of my serious domestic troubles. And.
believe me. I could not say to you
what I now do if I did not know
that I am speaking to a trustworthy
man in absolute confidence.”
Mr. Lamm made an appreciative ges
ture.
"The truth is, str, that I av utterly
-unable to account for the extraordi
nary conduct of my wife. Up to the
day of this murder, sir, since the
time that I married
.
Lamm, we have been on the best of
terms—the best of terms,” he repeated,
reflectively, as if half losing hinmeif
in dreamy reminiscence.
"And since?" the detective Insinu
ated.
Mr. Stackhouse's reply involved a
substantially accurate description of
the scene which had followed bls ar
rival at horns on the afternoon of the
17th of June, a statement which it
may naturally be conceived caused the
detective far less ' astonishment than
it might hare In some circumstances
But John Lamm was delighted to have
an opportunity to discuss this matter
with his client.
"And bow do you account for this?"
he queried.
"I don’t account for It," answered
Stackhouse. "I cannot account for it.
It is a great and frightful nightmare;
the puzzle of my whole life. Believe
me, sir, you know absolutely as much
about It as I do.”

in the waters of the northern Atlantic.

the men from Washington received
much attention from the Canadians, re

At a dinner one evening the Amer*
leans vied with the Canadians In ex
pressions of friendship and comity.
Among the speakers was Congressman
Capron, of Rhode Island, and it was
generally agreed that he made the hit
ol the evening.
“Gentlemen," observed Mr. Capron,
“It is indeed difficult for me to say
anything that at all approaches the
cleverness of the speakers preceding
me, but I am In deep sympathy with
all efforts to strengthen the ties of
friendship between our two countries.
Personally, I rest under a sense of deep
gratitude toward Canadians,' especially
those of the islands. Many years ago
there came to my home a girl from
Prince Edward Island, and she has ever
since remained there to brighten it”
This bit of sentiment from Mr. Cap
ron was greeted by vociferous ap
plause. Clearly the Rhode Islander
had surpassed all the others.
After
the dinner one of Capron’s colleagues,
well acquainted with him and his fam
ily, said:

See Fig. 1. Frequently two scions are
inserted In one cleft and the one show
ing greater vigor is retained. The low
est bud of scion should be near the cut
end of stock. Grafting wax is applied
to the cut surfaces to seep down evap
oration. Whip grafting is used where
stocks are small. Both stock and scion
are cut diagonally and split somewhat;
then the cut faces (three-quarter indh
long) are pushed together and some
times bound with raffia (a kind of grass)
or other material, and waxed. See Fig. 2.
All cuts must be smooth, and the
growing ceils of stock and scion must
be placed In close contact so that the sap
may pass readily from one to the other,
cautions the Ohio Farmer. It is well to
use considerable pressure upon the
union and then cover with grafting wax.
The tools and material used Id grafting
are: A sharp knife;/a saw for large
stocks; a grafter’s tool, consisting of a
combined chisel and wedge; a mallet;
some raffia or other binding material;
grafting wax. The w*x Is made of rosin
four parts, beeswax two parts, tallow
one part by weight, melted together,
then poured into cold water and "pulled*
with greased hands.
Increase the
amount of rosin if wax is too soft.
If stock has been removed from
ground before grafting by the whip or
tongue method, set out afterward deep
enough to reach a good moisture supply,
compact the soil and cultivate well. Bub
